Ingredients:

  • 2 1/4 cups flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 8 tsp sugar (1 tbsp = 3 tsp)
  • 16 tbsp room temperature butter (2 sticks)
  • 6 tbsp ice water
  • plastic wrap
  • circle cookie cutter
  • 18 oz jam (apricot, seedless raspberry, etc.) or 18 oz chocolate chips, reese's s pieces, etc ( apricot , seedless raspberry , etc.)

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°.
  2. Pour the dry ingredients into a mixing bowl and pulse twice in a food processor or run for 20 seconds on low in a KitchenAid.
  3. Slice the butter into the dry mixture.
  4. Mix until the lumps are smaller than a quarter of an inch in diameter (pea-sized).
  5. Add the egg yolk.
  6. Gradually sprinkle water over the mixture.
  7. Mix with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula until the mixture clumps together.
  8. Make the dough into a ball, trying to handle it as little as possible.

  10. Flatten the dough ball in the plastic wrap until it is approximately 2 inches thick.
  11. Put the dough ball in the freezer for 10 minutes.
  12. Remove the dough ball from the freezer and cut it in half.
  13. Take out two pieces of wax paper approximately 18” long.
  14. Roll half of the dough ball between the two pieces of wax paper until each side of the dough is 1/4 inch thick. Make sure it is even! The dough will be sticky so sprinkle extra flour on top as needed.
  15. Cut out the dough using the cookie cutter.
  16. Repeat steps 14 and 15 with the other half of the dough ball.
  17. Place about 1 tbs of jam in the center of each circle and fold it into a triangle.
