The true meaning of ...(brummie dots)...
It's in the cookies I baked yesterday, on Winter Solstice.
Instead of Thumbprint Cookies with Chocolate Covered Cherries, these are now officially ...brummie dots...
Now that I've seen the ...cookie... how about an opening bid of $9.95?
Hugs and best wishes for good cookies.

*grumbling because I was hoping to see a recipe for Brummie dots*
Cookies!
Ooooooh. I thought they were Brummie periods......
Oops.
Joy of Cooking
Almond Thumbprint Cookies (reduced fat - 2gr ea)
Heat oven to 375, grease cookie sheets
Whisk together toroughly:
1-1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup cornstarch
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
Beat on medium speed until well blended:
3-1/2 tblsp unsalted butter, softened
3 tblsp corn or canola oil
1 tblsp light corn syrup
1/2 cup sugar
1 large egg
1/4 tsp finely grated lemon zest (optional)
2-1/2 tsp vanilla
1/4 tsp almond extract
Stir the flour mixture into the egg mixture just until combined. With lightly greased hands, pull off pieces of dough and roll to 3/4 inch balls; do not make them larger, as the cookies should be small and will puff and spread a bit. Space the balls about 2 inches apart on the sheets.
With your thumb or knuckle, press down the center of each ball to make a large, deep well.
(in a normal thumbprint cookie you would fill the wells with fruit jam)
Bake 1 sheet at a time until tops are barely tinged with brown - 6-9 minutes.
Remove the sheet to a rack and let stand until the cookes firm slightly, then move to a towel covered rack.
Press a chocolate covered cordial cherry into the center of each cookie, and allow cookies to cool completely.
Voila! Brummie Dots!
I don't think the Brum-ster has periods, just dots.
wooohooo I'm going to start baking!
Thank you!!

They look kinda like nipples.
I just KNEW some guy was gonna make that observation! So, it had to be you, Mungo.... That's why I put three in the pix, and not two. I didn't want to overly encourage anyone....

I dunno, Brenda... Maybe offering THREE instead of two is overly encouraging!
