The answer is All of their offspring will have dimples.

A - dominant allele for having dimples
a - recessive allele for not having dimples

AA - individuals with dimples (mother in our case)
Aa - individuals with dimples (father in our case)
aa - individuals without dimples

The cross would look like this:
Parents: AA x Aa
Children: AA AA Aa Aa

So, all of the offspring will have dimples
