Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/3 cup seedless raspberry jam
- Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, cream together softened cream cheese and butter until smooth. Gradually add sifted flour and kosher salt until a dough forms.
- Shape the dough into a flattened disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface into a rectangle (10 inches by 30 inches). Spread raspberry jam over the dough, leaving a border to seal.
- Carefully roll the dough into a log from the jam-covered edge and seal the edge.
- Refrigerate the log for another 15 minutes before slicing into 1/4-inch thick cookies.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper. Bake cookies for 17-20 minutes until lightly golden.
