First try for the thumbprints, and they were similar to what others have said here - soft (which I like!!) and deliciously almond flavored. It does benefit from the freeze dried raspberry in the pink dusting sugar, and I put even more on after my first taste test.

As for the softness: They were in for 18 minutes, got the underside a nice golden brown, and they started out cold but definitely not frozen solid. Meringue was right, I think. Probably just the nature of them to be soft, but it'd be worth another try to see how far one could take the bake.
