I am pretty sure that I copied this recipe out of a cook book at my sister's house. These cookies are creamy and good. They look really great on a cookie tray! They do have to be refrigerated, though.
Ingredients:
pastry
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
1/3 cup sugar
3 tablespoons milk
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
filling
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 egg yolk
1/2 teaspoon grated orange peel
2 teaspoons orange juice
1/4 cup flaked coconut
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 375 degrees.
2. In medium bowl, mix 1/2 cup butter or margarine, 1/3 cup sugar, the milk, vanilla and salt with spoon. Stir in 1 1/3 cups flour.
3. Divide dough into 24 equal pieces. Press each piece in bottom and up side of small muffin cup, 1 3/4x1 inch, ungreased or lined with paper baking cups.
4. In medium bowl, mix cream cheese, 1/4 cup sugar, 3 tablespoons flour, the egg yolk, orange peel and orange juice. Spoon slightly less than 1 tablespoon mixture into each cup. Sprinkle with coconut.
5. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until pastry is light brown around edges and filling is set. Cool slightly; loosen from cups with tip of knife. Remove from pan to wire rack. Cool completely, about 1 hour. Store covered in refrigerator.
