Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound butter, softened
1 pound cream cheese, softened
4 cups sifted all-purpose flour
1 pound walnuts, ground
1 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons milk, or more as needed

Steps:

HUNGARIAN KIFFLES



Hungarian Kiffles image

Kiffles (kiflis) are traditional Hungarian cream cheese pastry cookies with assorted fruit and nut fillings like apricot, almond, and poppy.

Provided by Lynne Webb

Categories     Baking & Desserts

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 5

2-1/4 cups all-purpose flour (plus more for rolling)
1/2 teaspoon salt
8 ounces cream cheese (softened)
1 cup (1/2 lb) unsalted butter (softened)
2 to 2-1/2 cups cake and pastry filling (about two 12-ounce cans)

Steps:

  • Whisk the flour and salt together in a medium bowl and set aside.
  • Beat the cream cheese and butter with an electric mixer on medium speed until very smooth and creamy, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the flour mixture, 1/4 cup at a time, mixing just until combined. The dough will be quite moist, but not sticky.
  • Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and flatten into a square approximately 1/2-inch thick. Cut into 4 equal pieces and wrap each separately in plastic wrap. Refrigerate until firm, a minimum of 2 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F and position a rack in the center of the oven. Line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • Remove one portion of the dough from the refrigerator and place it on a liberally floured surface.
  • Dust the top of the dough with flour and cover with a sheet of wax or parchment paper. Working from the center toward the corners, roll the dough out to a 1/8-inch-thick square. It should measure about 9 inches.
  • For best results, see our recipe notes below to learn how to roll your dough into a perfect square.
  • Using a pastry wheel or a sharp knife, cut your dough both lengthwise and crosswise into small squares.
  • Your total yield will depend on how large you make them. We recommend 1-1/2-inches which will give you 36 kiffles per square of dough or about 12 dozen total.
  • The best way to keep the size even is to use a ruler and mark all 4 sides of the dough square at intervals with the tip of a knife. You can use the handle of a spatula to guide you as you cut to keep your lines straight as well (similar to drawing straight lines on a sheet of paper).
  • Working as quickly as possible, place a small mound of filling (about 1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon) in the center of each square. If the filling flavor you're using is relatively smooth you can spoon it into a small freezer bag, snip off a tiny bottom corner and squeeze the filling onto the squares. This works particularly well with the poppy and almond flavors.
  • Lift two opposite corners of the dough over the filling and gently pinch them together. Fold that "point" over to one side, moisten the tip of your finger with a bit of water and smooth it down gently on one side of the kiffle. This prevent the kiffles from popping open as they bake.
  • Important Note: The various filling flavors spread a bit differently during baking so you may want to fill a few "test" kiffles and bake them to gauge the right amount of filling for each type.
  • Arrange the kiffles 1 inch apart on the parchment lined cookie sheet. Bake until barely golden, 12 to 14 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute, then carefully transfer the kiffles to cooling racks.
  • Repeat the process with the remaining 3 portions of dough, using different filling flavors if desired.
  • Store kiffles between layers of waxed paper in a tightly closed container and refrigerate. Bring them to room temperature (30 minutes out of the fridge), arrange on a plate and dust lightly with powdered sugar just before serving. It's not advisable to top them with powdered sugar before storing.
  • Makes 8 to 12 dozen

VANILLE KIPFERL II



Vanille Kipferl II image

The vanille kipferl originated in Austria, and they are also very popular in Switzerland and Germany. The kipferl become even yummier after 2 to 3 days...but only for those who can resist long enough. If desired, the two ends of the kipferl can be dipped in warm chocolate and then left to cool.

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Austrian

Time 1h25m

Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 ⅛ cups all-purpose flour
1 pinch salt
7 tablespoons unsalted butter
½ cup confectioners' sugar
1 egg
3 teaspoons vanilla sugar
1 ¼ cups ground almonds

1 ½ teaspoons vanilla sugar

Steps:

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Cut in the butter until the size of small peas and mix in with your hands.
  • Mix 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar, the egg, 3 teaspoons of vanilla sugar, and ground almonds into the flour mixture. Place the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Divide the dough into several parts. Roll each section of dough into logs approximately 1/2 inch thick. Cut the logs into 1-inch pieces, and bend the pieces into a crescent shape (just like a croissant). Place the kipferl on the baking sheet and chill them for 15 minutes.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Let cool slightly.
  • Combine 6 tablespoons confectioners' sugar and 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla sugar and toss to mix.

GRAM'S HUNGARIAN KIFFLE



Gram's Hungarian Kiffle image

This is a recipe handed down from generation to generation originating in Hungary. When I make them I double the recipe, and use a variety of different fillings. We only make these at Christmas to give out as gifts with our other varies goodies we make, they're great for parties and gatherings, as well

Provided by Kim Martin

Categories     Other Desserts

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 - 8oz pkg cream cheese
1 c butter, unsalted - no substitutions
2 c all purpose flour
1/2 c powdered sugar, sifted
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 c filling, your choice: crushed nut, poppyseed, lekvar (prune butter), applebutter, apricot ~any fruit filling works, etc. i usually make a variety

Steps:

  • 1. 1) Cream butter and cream cheese till fluffy; gradually blending in sugar.
  • 2. 2) Stir together flour and salt, stir into a creamed mixture. OR...like me, you could just use a food processor for this step to form the dough.
  • 3. 3) Divide in half and roll with your hands to form a "Ball" and Cover; chilling dough several hours or overnight. Be advised; the less you handle the dough the more delicate and flakier it will be when it's baked.
  • 4. 4) On lightly floured surface, roll each portion into rectangles, THEN cut them down into about 2 1/2-inch squares. (There WILL be "odd triangle" sizes left. You'll USE them too! - Kiffles are a ROLLED, 'cresent-shape".)
  • 5. 5) Place a dollop (about one rounded teaspoon) of filling in the center of each square.
  • 6. 6) Lift up two diagonal corners of the dough to center, pinching together to seal into crescents.
  • 7. 7) Preheat oven to 375°.
  • 8. 8) Place dough on ungreased cookie sheet. (I'd STILL spray them with BUTTER FLAVORED PAM! - Better 'safe' than STUCK!) Bake till firm until golden brown (about 12-15 minutes).
  • 9. 9) Cool on wire racks. Sift powdered sugar over slightly warm pastries.
  • 10. 10) Store loosely covered in a cool dry place.
