Ingredients
- 1 package (6 ounces) golden raisins and cherries
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 3 tablespoons cherry juice blend
- Dash ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1 package (3 ounces) cream cheese, softened
- 1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 white chocolate Toblerone candy bar (3.52 ounces), finely chopped
- 1/4 cup finely chopped walnuts, toasted
- 2 teaspoons water
- 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
Preparation
Step 1
In a small saucepan, combine the first four ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 6-8 minutes or until most of the liquid is absorbed, stirring occasionally. Cool.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, beat butter and cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add flour.
Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface; knead until smooth, about 3 minutes. Roll into a 12-1/2-in. square; cut into 2-1/2-in. squares.
Stir candy and walnuts into fruit mixture. Drop filling by tablespoonfuls onto the center of each square. Bring two opposite corners to center; moisten edges with water and pinch together.
Place 1 in. apart on lightly greased baking sheets. Bake at 350° for 16-18 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove to wire racks to cool.
Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar. Store in an airtight container. Yield: 25 cookies.
