CREAM CHEESE BUTTER COOKIES

     CBUTTR-COOKIES - Simple filled butter cookies with cream
     cheese

INGREDIENTS (3-4 dozen)
     1/2 pound butter
     1 cup     sugar
     2 1/2 cups
               all-purpose flour
     1         egg yolk
     4 oz      cream cheese
               raspberry jam

PROCEDURE
          (1)  Preheat oven to 350 deg. F.  Cream together the
               butter and sugar.

          (2)  Add the flour and egg yolk and mix well.

          (3)  Add the cream cheese and mix well.

          (4)  Roll into balls about 5/8 inch in diameter.  Place
               them on an ungreased cookie sheet (the cookies
               don't grow when baked, so they can be somewhat
               close together).  Then press your thumb into each
               to flatten it and make an indentation to hold some
               jam. Fill it with jam.

          (5)  Bake at 350 deg. F for 15 to 20 minutes.

NOTES
     You can use any flavor jam you like.  The jam is the only
     part of the cookie that has any texture, so I prefer using
     it to jelly.

     Don't eat the cookies straight from the oven, or you'll
     probably burn your tongue.  The jam stays hotter much longer
     than the cookie.

RATING
     Difficulty: easy, but strenuous if made by hand.  Time: 20
     minutes preparation, 15-20 minutes baking.  Precision: Meas-
     ure the ingredients.
