Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour sifted
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 0.5 cup granulated sugar for dusting
  • 1 cup fruit preserves apricot, raspberry, or your choice
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and butter using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
  • Gradually add the sifted flour and salt to the cream cheese mixture, mixing thoroughly until combined.
  • Divide the dough into two portions, wrap each in plastic, and refrigerate for at least one hour or until firm.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • On a floured surface, roll out each portion of dough to about 1/8 inch thick. Cut into squares approximately 2x2 inches.
  • Place a small amount of fruit preserve in the center of each square. Fold opposite corners together to seal.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until edges are lightly golden.
  • Cool on wire racks and dust with granulated sugar before serving.

Notes

To ensure the cookies don't open during baking, you can seal the edges with a bit of water.
