Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups flour
2 tbsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
8 oz. cream cheee, softened
2 sticks unsalted butter, softened, 16 tbsp.
1 1/2 tsp. pure almond extract, divided
1 egg, beaten with 1 tsp. water
1/2 cup cherry preserves
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 to 2 tbsp. heavy cream

Steps:

  • 1. Mix flour, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Beat cream cheese, butter and 1/2 tsp. almond extract in large bowl with hand mixer til fluffy, 1 minute. Add flour mixture and beat just to mix. Divide dough in half, form each half into a disk, and wrap in plastic wrap. chill 1 hour or up to 1 day.
  • 2. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • 3. Roll dough on lightly floured work surface to 1/8 inch thick. Using a 3 inch round cookie cutter, cut cookies; transfer to prepared baking sheets. Reroll scraps once.
  • 4. Drop 1/2 tsp. preserves in center of each cookie, brush edges with egg wash, fold over filling and seal with a fork. Freeze cookies 1 hour. Preheat oven to 350.
  • 5. Brush cookies with egg wash and prick center with a fork. Bake cookies, one baking sheet at a time, til golden, 12 to 15 minutes; let cool on racks.
  • 6. Whisk together powdered sugar, heavy cream and 1 tsp. almond extract. Drizzle cookies with glaze. Note: I was thinking of making these with orange marmalade and orange extract in place of the cherry preserves and almond extract. Just a thought.
