These are not your average thumbprint cookies! Known as pepas in Argentina, these buttery cookies are soft, delicate, and filled with sweet quince jam — a nostalgic treat from my childhood 🇦🇷. They’re simple to make, yet full of flavor and tradition. Perfect for teatime, holidays, or whenever you’re craving something cozy and homemade!

✨ No fancy tools needed
🍪 Perfect melt-in-your-mouth texture
🧡 A beloved classic in every Argentine home
