Oatmeal Thumbprint Filling

Cream:
1 stick butter
1 cup white sugar

Add:
1 egg
1 tablespoon vanilla

Whisk together and add in 3 batches to above combined mixture:
1 1/4 cups finely ground oatmeal (do this in a food processor)
1 1/4 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt

Shape dough into balls--about 2 tablespoons each.
Place the dough balls about 2 inches apart on greased cookie sheets.
Use your thumb to make an indentation in each dough ball. Fill each indentation with about 1/2 teaspoon of your favorite jelly.

Bake at 350? for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove the cookie sheets from the oven and then place cookies on wire racks to cool.
