Delicate pastry with a little of your favorite jam -- these may just be my favorite cookie of all time! If you have never tried a Kolaczki Cookie, let this be your sign! The pastry base is so simple, then top with jam, and a little powdered sugar. Seriously, these shouldn't be THIS good. But they are.

Kolaczki Polish Cookies
(CO-wāch-key)
Ingredients
🍪1 cup butter, softened
🍪8 ounces cream cheese, softened
🍪½ teaspoon almond extract
🍪½ teaspoon salt
🍪2 cups flour
🍪Jam
🍪powdered sugar
Instructions
🍪Cream together butter, cream cheese, and almond extract.
🍪Mix together salt and flour, then add to the bowl with the mixer on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
🍪Wrap dough in plastic wrap and flatten into a rectangle. Refrigerate for at least an hour.
🍪Preheat your oven to 350°F and line your baking sheet with parchment. 🍪Sprinkle powdered sugar on your pastry mat or very clean counter.
🍪Working quickly, cut the chilled dough in half and place one half on your pastry mat/counter and the other back in the refrigerator.
🍪Roll the dough out to 1⁄4 inch thick then cut your dough into 2 ½ inch squares.
🍪Place each square onto a baking sheet and add ½ tsp of jam into the centers of the pastry then carefully spread the jam out.
🍪Cross one corner of the pastry square over the jam filling. Rub a small drop of water on the corner of the pastry square and then seal the cookie by overlapping with the opposite pastry square corner.
🍪Bake for 10 to 20 minutes or until the edges are golden. Allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire cooling rack.
🍪Dust with powdered sugar.
