This treasured recipe was shared with me by Elizabeth Baksa. It is one that she has made for many, many years and is the favorite of her grandson-in-law, Michael and loved my many others. I had the pleasure of my first taste of this soft, crispy cookie at a New Years Eve party at the home of Elizabeth, Sandor and Kimmie. Elizabeth has been kind enough to allow me the pleasure of being in the kitchen with her the following three years to bake these delightful pillows of goodness!
3 sticks butter
3/4 c sugar
4 c flour
3 egg yolks
Cream butter, add sugar and egg yolks. Add flour. Knead dough until smooth. Cut dough in half. Knead a little more with small amount of flour, again, until smooth.
Cut out 1/2 inch rounds, an even amount of tops and bottoms, making holes in half of the rounds.
Bake seperatly 15 min at 350. Cool.
In a bowl, mix 2 c 10 x with 2 packs of vanilla sugar.
Place apricot preserves on bottom of cookie, top and then toss in 10x mixture.
Enjoy!
