Sophies Kolacky

This is my grandma’s (Sophie) kolacky recipe, and it probably came from her grandmother in Poland. My family can’t get enough of these at Christmas.

Step: 1

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

Step: 2

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

Step: 3

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

Step: 4

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

Step: 5

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

Step: 6

Roll dough to 1/4-inch thickness.

Step: 7

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.

Step: 8

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