Instructions
- Cut butter into flour then mix it together until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs. Cut the cream cheese into small cubes and then "rub" into the flour/butter crumbs.
- Knead this mixture until it forms a ball.
- Separate the dough into two equal parts and wrap each part in plastic wrap and refrigerate for a few hours (at least 4).
- To make fruit filling mix the raspberry jam together with sugar with the chopped toasted pecans and grated key lime peel.
- Pre heat oven to 350°F
- Once dough has chilled roll it out each half on a floured surface to about 9 or 10 inches. Then spread each dough circle with jam mixture.
- After you have spread the mixture of jam on the dough circles cut each circle out inot about 10-12 wedges. Then roll each wedge up tightly starting from the widest part of the dough.
- Put cookie rolls on a very lighty greased cookie sheet then brush the cookies with the egg whites and sprinkle with extra nuts. Then bake cookies for about 20 minutes or until lightly browned.
- Once cooled sprinkle powdered sugar over the cookies.
