Sophie's Kolacky Recipe

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease cookie sheets.

Using a pastry blender or food processor cut butter into cream cheese.

In a small bowl sift dry ingredients together except for confectioners' sugar.

Work dry ingredients into butter/cream cheese mixture until you have an even mealy texture.

Knead to form a stiff dough. If the dough gets too soft refrigerate for about five minutes before continuing.

Roll dough to 1/4-inch thickness.

Using a cookie cutter or glass cut into about 3 inch diameter cookies. Keep re-rolling dough until you have used it all. Use your thumb to make a depression in each cookie. Place a 1/2 teaspoon of filling in the depression.

Bake for about 20 minutes (until lightly golden). Let cool on a cookie rack. Dust lightly with confectioners' sugar. Store in an airtight container
