ROSKY (SLOVAK COOKIES) 
4 c. unsifted flour
1 lb. cream cheese
1 lb. butter (Parkay)
3 egg yolks
1 sm. cake yeast
Filling - apricot paste, any flavor jam, crushed nuts with sugar

Sift flour, add cream cheese, butter, eggs and yeast dissolved in 1/2 cup milk. Knead until smooth. Refrigerate overnight. Take out about 5 balls (larger than a golf ball, smaller than a handball). Keep the rest refrigerated. Roll out on a floured board with about 1 teaspoon sugar. Cut pie shaped pieces. Place filling on large part and roll. Bake at 350 degrees for almost 15 minutes. Makes about 12 dozen.

TIP: If you leave butter and cheese out for about 1 hour its easier to knead.

My Uncle was Slovakian. My Aunt made these and Potica every year at Christmas. We loved them. They are time consuming but worth it. Really good with a cup of coffee or hot tea.
