HUNGARIAN COOKIES - Carol Matto Kaye

Here's one: the best little hungarian cookies......

• 1 lb. of butter,
• 1 lb. of creamcheese and
• 1 lb. of flour....

Just knead all ingredients together until it no longer sticks to your hand; refrigerator over night. 

Roll out the dough on a floured board ( i also put sugar in the flour) small bits at a time to about 1/8" to 1/4" thick; cut into 2-3" squares and fill with walnuts or lekvar (prune) or apricot filling.

Just fold over 2 corners & pinch together.

Bake at 350 for about 15 minutes until golden brown. 

For the walnuts: grind as much as you want, add sugar to taste and a little milk to hold the nuts together.

These are great but very time consuming. I make about 300 for Christmas. Enjoy!!
