Czech Walnut Pastries

Combine cream cheese, butter, and vanilla in a large bowl. With a pastry blender, cut in flour 1 cup at a time until dough is thoroughly mixed. Shape into ball. Wrap and refrigerate overnight.

For Filling: Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Divide dough in half, keeping one half refrigerated. Sprinkle work surface with powdered sugar. Roll 1 dough half into a 12 x 10 inch rectangle, adding powdered sugar as needed.

Spread half of the filling evenly over dough. Cut into 2 inch squares and roll up, jellyroll fashion. Place seam side down 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheets.

Bake for 25-30 minutes until lightly browned on bottom. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.

Transfer to wire racks to cool. Dust with powdered sugar or decorative icing.
