These are very simple, but you will find NO better cookie anywhere!
On the down side, they do require advanced preparation (overnight is
best).
Included are a couple of filling recipes, but a can of pre-made
will work too. (Apricot is best)
When rolling out dough, try to keep it as chilled as possible. To
cream the cottage cheese, it helps if you have a food processor or
blender, but a fork and a strong arm will do in a pinch.
Mix ingredients and chill at least 6 hours. Roll to 1/4" thickness.
Cut into 2 or 3 inch squares, and place filling or preserves in
center of square. Bring corners over filling and seal together. Bake
at 350 - 25 to 30 minutes. Remove and dust with powdered sugar.
Pineapple Filling: Combine ingredients in sauce pan, cook stirring
constantly until thickened. Cool.
Apricot Filling: Simmer apricot 10 minutes. Add sugar and simmer 10
minutes more. Remove from heat and add butter and cinnamon. Cool.
