Strawberry Pinch Cookies
  1. Beat the cream cheese and butter together until smooth.

  2. Add the sugar and beat 2-3 minutes, until light and fluffy

  3. Add the flour and mix together until a dough starts to form. It will be a little crumbly

  4. Form the dough into a ball, wrap with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30-60 minutes.

  5. Preheat the oven to 350. Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  6. On a lightly floured surface roll the dough out so that it is about ⅛” thick.

  7. Cut the dough into 2” squares. I like to use a pizza cutter.

  8. Place slightly less than half a teaspoon of jam in the middle of each square.

  9. Lightly brush two opposite corners with water. Bring the corners together and pinch tightly in the middle, above the jam.

  10. Place cookies 1 inch apart on a baking sheet and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until they are lightly browned on the edges.

  11. Let the cookies sit for 5 minutes on the baking sheet and then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.

  12. Sprinkle with powdered sugar if desired.
