The recipe includes this information, which is attributed to Evans. "My favorite holiday cookie was created by my dear friend Gary, who is the daddy of my Goddaughter: Ginger cookie with lemon curd; two things I love. The cookie itself is irresistible. When I put the lemon curd on it, I'm in trouble! This cookie is light and delicious and very enticing on a holiday platter."

How to Make Linda Evans' Ginger Lemon Thumbprint Cookies
Preheat your oven to 350° and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. I used foil because that's all I had on hand.
Sift the flour, ginger, cinnamon, baking soda, allspice, cloves, nutmeg and salt in a large bowl. Reduce the mixer speed to low and gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the butter mixture until fully combined. The dough should be slightly sticky but easy to handle. Scoop heaping tablespoons of dough, roll them lightly into balls, and place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving 1 1/2 to 2 inches of space between each one.
Using your finger or the end of a wooden spoon, create an indention in each dough ball. As the cookies bake the indention will open up, making space for the lemon curd. Bake the cookies for 12 minutes, then transfer them to a cooling rack.
While the cookies are still warm, gently re-press the indentions if they lost their shape during baking. Let the cookies cool completely. To serve, dust the cookies with confectioners' sugar and fill with chilled lemon curd just before serving.
