Steps:
- In a large mixing bowl cream together butter and cream cheese until smooth at medium-high speed. Beat in the almond extract.
- Add the salt and all-purpose flour in 3 additions, scraping down the bowl as needed to combine. Do not over mix to keep the pastry light and flaky.
- Once the dough is combined form it into a ball and dump it onto a large piece of plastic wrap. Flatten the dough down into a square shape and cover it completely with plastic wrap. Place it in the refrigerator to chill for 45 minutes to 1 hour.
- Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper (or bake one batch at a time if you only have one baking sheet) and set aside.
- When the dough has chilled, sprinkle a clean work surface and a rolling pin with powedered sugar.
- Divide the dough in half (return the other half to the refrigerator until ready to use) and roll the dough into a large square, 7½ x 7½, 1⁄4 inch thick. Trim the edges with a pizza cutter. Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut the dough into 2 1⁄2 inch squares. (Re-roll the scraps to cut more cookies.)
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Carefully transfer the squares to the prepared baking sheets and spoon 1⁄2 teaspoon of jam in the middle of each square.
- Cross one corner of the pastry square over the jam filling. Rub a small drop of water on the corner of the pastry square and then seal the cookie by overlapping with the opposite pastry square corner. Carefully pinch the dough to seal it with your thumb and index finger. Continue until all the cookies are sealed.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the edges are just slightly golden. Transfer the cookies to a cooling rack after 3 minutes to cool completely.
- Sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving and enjoy!

Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- In a large bowl, beat cream cheese with butter until light and fluffy.
- Add the flour, 1 cup at a time, and mix well.
- Wrap dough in plastic and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Heat oven to 350 F. Roll out dough to a 12 x 18-inch rectangle-1/4-inch thick-on a silicone mat or a surface that has been dusted with equal parts confectioners' and granulated sugars (not flour), because the granulated sugar will act as ball bearings and help keep the dough from sticking.
- Cut into 2-inch squares. Place 1/2 to 1 teaspoon filling on center of each square. Brush a tiny bit of beaten egg white on one corner and press the opposite corner on it, pressing the dough together lightly to seal.
- Using a spatula, transfer the filled cookies to a parchment-lined sheet pan and bake for 15 minutes (longer if baking from frozen) or until corners start to brown.
- Using a spatula, remove cookies from the baking sheet and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before dusting with confectioners' sugar. Serve and enjoy!

10 POLISH CHRISTMAS COOKIES TO PUT ON YOUR BUCKET LIST
From chefspencil.com
- Faworki (Angel’s Wings) These thin, see-through cookies used to be reserved for Polish Doughnut Day or Fat Thursday (Tłusty Czwartek), but you can find them all the year round now, and most Christmas fairs sell them.
- Kołaczki (Cream Cheese Cookies) My favorite version of these cream cheese dough pieces is little cute diamonds, although the cookies can come in all kinds of shapes.
- Rogaliki Waniliowe (Vanilla Cookies) These shortbread crescent-shaped cookies are popular at any Christmas market around Europe. No one knows for sure from where they originated.
- Ciasteczka Cytrynowe (Lemon Tea Cookies) I call these ones Polish macarons. While they have nothing to do with meringue, both the Polish and French cookies are on the fancier side and have a filling to die for.
- Ciasteczka Warszawskie (Warsaw Cookies) One more competitor of French macarons, Warsaw cookies are crunchy sweet sandwiches with mouthwatering, tender semolina cream squeezed between two crunchy bases.
