Time 8h45m

Yield 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 ounces unsalted butter, softened
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 teaspoons sugar
1 egg, slightly beaten
2 cups all-purpose flour
Confectioners' sugar, as needed
Canned fruit filling, like apricot or prune, as needed

Steps:

  • In a standing mixer fitted with a paddle, or in a bowl using a hand-held beater, cream the butter, cream cheese, and sugar until well blended. Add the egg and mix until incorporated. Add the flour and mix until incorporated.
  • Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill overnight.
  • On a work surface sprinkled with confectioner's sugar, divide the dough into 4 equal pieces. Working in 4 batches, roll the dough out to 1/4-inch thick. Using a 2 1/2-inch biscuit cutter, cut out small rounds and transfer them to a parchment-lined cookie sheet.
  • Using your thumb, make a slight indentation in each cookie. Fill each indentation with the filling of your choice.
  • Chill the cookies while you preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Bake the cookies until lightly browned, about 15 to 17 minutes.
  • Dust with confectioners' sugar before you serve.
