Step 4

For pastry, beat butter and cream cheese in a medium mixing bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until combined.

Add flour and the 2 tablespoons sugar; beat on low speed until crumbly, then knead until a dough forms.

Step 6

Divide dough into thirds.

Step 7

Roll one-third of the dough on a lightly floured surface into a 9-inch circle.

Step 8

Spread the dough with one-third of the cooled filling.

Step 9

Cut circle into 12 wedge-shape pieces.

Step 10

Beginning at wide end of each wedge, roll up dough.

Step 11

Place cookies, tip side down, about 2 inches apart on a greased cookie sheet.

Step 12

Repeat with remaining dough and filling.

Step 13

Brush each cookie with some milk and, if desired, sprinkle with sugar.

Step 14

Bake in a 350 degree F oven for 15 minutes or till golden brown.
