Raspberry Pinwheel Cookies

Step 1

Combine the flour and salt in a food processor and pulse a few times to mix.

Step 2

Add the butter and cream cheese and process until a ball a dough forms. It will form fine crumbs first, and then as you continue to process it will clump together into a ball.

Step 3

Chill the dough for 2 hours.

Step 4

Preheat the oven to 375 F.

Step 5

Roll the dough out onto a lightly floured surface into a rectangle about 14 x 12 inches. I cut the edges off my rectangle to make it straight.

Step 6

Spread the jam on the dough, and then spread the walnuts on top.

Step 7

Roll up from the long side and cut into 1/2 inch thick slices.

Step 8

Dip one side of each slice in coarse sugar.

Step 9

Bake sugar side up for 15 - 20 minutes, until the cookies are lightly browned.
