GRAM'S HUNGARIAN KIFFLE
This is a recipe handed down from generation to generation originating in Hungary. When I make them I double the recipe, and use a variety of different fillings. We only make these at Christmas to give out as gifts with our other varies goodies we make, they're great for parties and gatherings, as well

Steps:
- 1. 1) Cream butter and cream cheese till fluffy; gradually blending in sugar.
- 2. 2) Stir together flour and salt, stir into a creamed mixture. OR...like me, you could just use a food processor for this step to form the dough.
- 3. 3) Divide in half and roll with your hands to form a "Ball" and Cover; chilling dough several hours or overnight. Be advised; the less you handle the dough the more delicate and flakier it will be when it's baked.
- 4. 4) On lightly floured surface, roll each portion into rectangles, THEN cut them down into about 2 1/2-inch squares. (There WILL be "odd triangle" sizes left. You'll USE them too! - Kiffles are a ROLLED, 'cresent-shape".)
- 5. 5) Place a dollop (about one rounded teaspoon) of filling in the center of each square.
- 6. 6) Lift up two diagonal corners of the dough to center, pinching together to seal into crescents.
- 7. 7) Preheat oven to 375°.
- 8. 8) Place dough on ungreased cookie sheet. (I'd STILL spray them with BUTTER FLAVORED PAM! - Better 'safe' than STUCK!) Bake till firm until golden brown (about 12-15 minutes).
- 9. 9) Cool on wire racks. Sift powdered sugar over slightly warm pastries.
- 10. 10) Store loosely covered in a cool dry place.

Even though these have very little sugar, they are fabulous. They even give Kolaches some stiff competition.

Steps:
- Beat butter and cream cheese in the bowl of a stand mixer until pale yellow and creamy. Gradually add 2 cups flour to butter mixture until the dough is too thick for the mixer. Stir remaining 2 cups flour into the butter mixture by hand and knead until dough falls off hands easily. Roll dough into a ball, place in bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for 8 hours or overnight.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Stir walnuts and sugar together in a bowl. Pour milk into walnut mixture and stir to form a paste.
- Turn dough onto a floured work surface and roll to desired thickness. Cut dough into 2-inch squares. Place about 1 teaspoon walnut filling in the center of each square. Roll the dough from 1 corner to the other corner around the walnut filling and transfer to a baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until light brown, 10 to 15 minutes.
