A delicious cookie for anytime. Found on the internet. It has a chill time of several hours that I have not added to the prep time or the cook time.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup soft butter or margarine
2 pkgs. (3 oz. ea.) softened cream cheese
3/4 cup sifted all purpose flour
1/2 tsp. salt
11/2 tbsp. cold water
apricot preserves
minced nuts
confectionery sugar
Directions:
1. Cut butter and cheese into flour and salt. Add water and mix lightly with fork until blended. Chill for several hours until firm. Divide into three balls. Roll thin as possible into circle, cut each circle into 8 pie-shaped pieces. Spread each with apricot preserves and sprinkle with minced nuts. Roll wide end toward point to make a crescent. Bake for about 15 minutes in preheated hot oven 450F. Cool. Sift confectionery sugar over crescents. Do not over bake, checking frequently. The pastry should be light in color.
2. Makes 24 pieces
