| INGREDIENTS: | |
| 1 cup | Butter, softened |
| 3 oz | Cream Cheese, softened |
| 1 cup | Sugar |
| 2¾ cups | Flour |
| ½ tsp | Baking Powder |
| Raspberry Preserves | |
| Confectioner's Sugar | |
DIRECTIONS:
Cream the butter, cream cheese, and sugar. In a separate bowl, combine the flour and baking powder. Mix both butter mixture and the flour mixture together, wrap in saran wrap and chill overnight. The following day, roll out 1/2 of the dough to about 1/8 inch thick. Cut one-half of that dough with circular cookie cutter into round discs. Cut the other half into discs with the center also cut out. Bake them both for 8 minutes at 350 degrees.
When cooked and cooled, spread the full round discs with raspberry preserves. Top with the "wreath-like" cut-out discs. Sprinkle with confectioner's sugar.
Repeat with the other half of the dough.
Makes about 3 dozen completed cookies.
