German Jelly Tarts

My roommate in college always made this recipe and it only takes four ingredients (five if you want to make the glaze) and it's so delicious

Ingredients
1 cup butter softened
2 cups flour
1 cup cottage cheese
Any type of jam or jelly

Directions

Blend together the butter flour and cottage cheese

Work dough into a ball

Roll the dough out into a sheet about 1/4 inch thick. Fold up the sheet, turn, and roll the dough again. Repeat four times.

Roll dough into a rectangle and cut into diamonds, circles or whatever your heart desires.

Place cut out pieces onto a lightly greased cookie sheet, make a depression in the center of each tart, fill with 1/4 tsp of preserves

Bake at 400 for 15 minutes or until edges begin to brown lightly.



Cool on wire rack.

Drizzle each tart with icing if desired



Icing can by made with one cup of powdered sugar and 1 or 2 TBSP water.
