      1/2   c            Butter
    3       oz           Cream cheese
    1       t            Vanilla extract
    1       c            Flour
      1/8   ts           Salt
    6       ts           100% fruit spread
    1                    Eggs

   Use various flavors of fruit spread.
   
   Combine butter and cream cheese in large bowl; beat until smooth and
   creamy.  Blend in vanilla.  Combine flour and salt; gradually add to
   butter mixture, mixing until mixture forms soft dough. Divide dough
   in half; wrap each half in plastic wrap. Refrigerate until firm.
   
   Preheat oven to 375.  Roll out half of dough on lightly floured pastry
   cloth or board to 1/8" thickness.  Cut with top of glass or biscuit
   cutter into 3" rounds.  Spoon 1/2 ts fruit spread onto center of each
   dough circle.  Beat egg with water; lightly brush onto edges of dough
   circles. Bring three edges of dough up over fruit spread; pinch edges
   together to seal.  Place on ungreased cookie sheets; brush with egg
   mixture. Pepeat with remaining dough and fruit spread. Bake 12
   minutes, until golden brown.
   
   Let stand on cookie sheets 1 minute; transfer to wire rack. Cool
   completely.  Store in tightly covered container.
