How to Make Tri Cornered Cream Cheese Cookies With Jam Filling
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter, 8 ounces cream cheese (softened), and 1 cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or up to 2 hours) to chill and firm up for easier handling.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out half of the dough at a time to 1/8 inch thickness.
- Use a 2 1/2-inch round cookie cutter to cut out circles.
- Place the circles 1 inch apart on ungreased baking sheets.
- Spoon 1 teaspoon of your favorite jam into the center of each cookie.
- Fold three sides of each circle over the jam filling to create a triangle shape. Pinch the corners firmly to seal.
- Bake for 7-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 1 minute before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Dust with powdered sugar, if desired.
