Description

Discover the secret to baking these irresistible treats!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup fruit preserves (apricot, raspberry, or your choice)
  • Powdered sugar for dusting


Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, butter, cream cheese, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until a dough forms.
  2. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  3. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  4. On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/8 inch thick.
  5. Cut the dough into squares, approximately 3 inches by 3 inches.
  6. Place a teaspoon of fruit preserves in the center of each square.
  7. Fold the corners of the square towards the center to form a pocket and pinch to seal.
  8. Place the cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  9. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until lightly golden.
  10. Allow to cool and dust with powdered sugar before serving.

Notes

  • For a different flavor, try using different types of fruit preserves.
  • Make sure the dough is chilled to prevent sticking.
