FILLING

Cream margarine and cream cheese in large bowl of electric mixer. Gradually add flour. Blend well. Chill dough wrapped in waxed paper for about 3 hours. Divide dough into two parts. Roll out one portion and cut into circles w/ round cookie cutter or glass. Place ½ tsp. of raspberry filling slightly off-center of circle. Fold in half. Pinch edges to seal.

Curve into a crescent, if desired. With other half of dough, roll into a large circle, then cut into triangles. Spread apricot preserve and nut mixture on triangles. Roll up, starting with the long side, into crescents.

Bake in 350 degree oven for 12-13 minutes. While hot, roll in confectioner's sugar. Cool and then put in airtight containers. Later, before serving, re-roll in confectioner's sugar again.

Makes approx. 40 cookies.
