    Recipe Introduction

    GP's 2003 12-Days-of-Christmas Cookies Day 11 - These are like my Grandmother's who is Hungarian...we all LOVED them although they take a little time and love!

    List of Ingredients

    2 cups all-purpose flour
    8 ounce cream cheese
    1/2 pound butter
    1 egg
    2 teaspoons granulated sugar
    1 cup apricot jam
    2 tablespoons butter
    1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
    1/4 pound ground walnuts
    1 egg white, beaten
    1/2 cup honey
    1/2 teaspoon almond extract
    1/2 teaspoon vanilla

    Recipe

    type: refrigerator, rolled - Makes: 3-4 dozen

    Sift flour and sugar together. Work in the butter, cream cheese, and egg. Knead together. Cover and refrigerator overnight.

    For nut filling:
    combine walnuts, egg white, honey, almond and vanilla extract.

    For jam filling:
    heat jam over low heat with butter. Remove from heat and add cinnamon. Cool slightly.

    Preheat oven to 375°F.

    Lightly grease cookie sheets or line with parchment paper.

    Roll out dough between two pieces of wax paper until 1/8" in thickness or thinner. Carefully pull off the top piece of wax paper. Sprinkle, lightly, with powdered sugar. Cut dough into 2" squares. Spread with a small amount of filling (diagonally corner to corner), half with walnut mixture and half with jam mixture. Don't overfill or they will leak while cooking.

    Roll, corner to corner, like a croissant. Sprinkle lightly with powdered sugar and place on cookie sheets about 2" apart. Bake 10-15 minutes or until lightly browned. Transfer to wire racks to cool.
