Grandpa's Hungarian Kolacky

Total Time: 38 mins Preparation Time: 30 mins Cook Time: 8 mins

Ingredients

• 1 cup butter or 1 cup margarine, softened
• 2 (3 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• assorted baking jelly or pie filling (my favorites are apricot, poppy seed, almond, and raspberry)
• powdered sugar

Recipe

• 1 combine butter and cream cheese completely, add flour and mix well.
• 2 divide dough into 4 balls; wrap each in plastic wrap and chill 24 hours.
• 3 roll out each ball (on floured surface) to 1/8". (be sure to keep them thin, as this keeps them "light!")
• 4 cut out silver-dollar sized cookies; place on ungreased cookie sheets.
• 5 drop 1/2 teaspoon jelly in center of each cookie and bake at 350* for 7-8 min. (just until edges begin to brown.) i always bake the cookies flat; however, the edges may be pinched or rolled together as well!
• 6 lightly sift powdered sugar over cookies and serve.
