    Filled- Sour Cream Pastries


    Source of Recipe


    Christmas Cookies BHG 1996

    List of Ingredients




    1 cup butter (not substitutes)
    2 cups all-purpose flour
    1/2 cup dairy sour cream
    1 beaten egg yolk
    1/2 cup apricot preserves
    1/2 cup flaked coconut
    1/4 cup finely chopped pecans
    Granulated or powdered sugar (about 4 teaspoons)

    Recipe



    Cut butter into flour in a mixing bowl till mixture resembles fine crumbs. Combine sour cream and egg yolk; stir into flour mixture, using hands to mix well. Form into a boll. If dough seems soft, cover and chill a few hours or overnight.
    Snip any large pieces of apricot in preserves. Combine preserves, coconut, and pecans in a small bowl. Set aside.
    Divide dough into fourths. Roll one portion at a time into a 10-inch circle on a lightly floured surface. Spread each circle thinly with one-fourth of the filling mixture, leaving a 2-inch circle in the center without filling. Using a fluted pastry or a sharp knife, cut each circle into 12 wedges to the point. Place point-side down on an ungreased cookie sheet. Sprinkle tops with granulated or powdered sugar. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 18 to 20 minutes or till lightly browned. Cool on wire rack. Makes 48.
