List of Ingredients
Pastry:
2 sticks of butter
6 oz cream cheese
2 1/4 C flour

3/4 C raisins
1 C sugarRecipe
Mix together butter, cream cheese and flour slowly. Divide dough into 3 and put in the refrigerator over night or up to 24 hours.
Grind the poppy seeds and add the raisins and sugar. (Sue's note: i'd toss in a drop of dark rum too.. maybe 2 Tbsp.)
Roll the dough out into a rectangle. Spread the poppy mixture onto the dough. Roll in a jelly roll fashion and let raise for 30 minutes. Bake at 325 for 20-25 minutes.
Grandma also used to drizzle a glaze (powder sugar and milk) onto the top..
