Ingredients
18 servings
- •6 ounces cream cheese, softened
- •1 cup butter
- •2 cups all-purpose flour
- •2 tablespoons white sugar
- •0.125 teaspoon salt
- •2 teaspoons baking powder
- •1 (21 ounce) can apple pie filling
- •2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
Instructions
- 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
