I got this Polish cookie recipe from my Polish neighbor in Detroit. I've never seen it anywhere else. It's a delicate tasty cookie that's just right for a Christmas cookie tray. It's very flaky and delicious, just what I like! Happy Baking! Cheryl

1 c butter or margarine
2 c flour
1 c cottage cheese

Cut shortening into flour until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add cottage cheese and mix until well blended. Knead well, as for pie crust.) Wrap in waxed paper and refrigerate for several hours or preferably overnight.

Roll dough on well-floured board to 1/8" thickness. Cut into 2" squares. Place about 1 tsp. of jam or preserves (Solo filling are best) onto each square, bringing up 2 opposite corners and pinch together on top.

Bake on ungreased cookie sheets at 350 degrees about 18 minutes until golden brown. Cool.

Sprinkle with confectioner's sugar.

** Solo filling comes in prune, apricot, poppy seed, or raspberry
