Kolackis


These are a favorite at my house at Christmas time.  This year we made apricot, cherry and prune.

1 Cup butter, softened
1 pkg. (8oz.) cream cheese, softened
1 Tbsp milk
1 Tbsp sugar
1 egg yolk, beaten
1 ½ Cups flour
½ tsp baking powder
1 can solo filling




Cream together butter, cream cheese, milk and sugar.  Add egg yolk.  Sift together flour and baking powder.  Add to creamed mixture and blend well.  Refrigerate until dough is thoroughly chilled, 4 hours or overnight.  Roll on well-floured board to ¼-inch thickness.  Cut with 2-inch round biscuit cutter.  Place on greased cookie sheet and make a depression with thumb in the center of each round.  Fill centers with scant teaspoon of solo filling.  Bake at 400F for 10-15 minutes or until lightly browned.  Cool completely.  Sprinkle with confectioner’s sugar before serving.
