Cream Cheese Dainties
My sister Judy makes these only at Christmas so they've become a "special" cookie. She doubles the recipe and makes it 5 times in order to have enough for everyone!
Ingredients
- 4 ounces cream cheese
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup butter (no substitutes)
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- Raspberry jam
Instructions
- Mix flour and sugar together in large bowl. Cut butter and cream cheese into flour mixture until it resembles the size of peas. Knead together until it forms a ball.
- Chill for 1 hour.
- Heat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Divide dough in half. On lightly floured surface, roll out to 1/8 inch thickness. Cut 2 inch round circles and place on an ungreased cookie sheet. Put 1/4 teaspoon preserves slightly off center of each circle. Fold over and seal edges with water.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly golden.
