Preparation Steps
- 1
Make the Dough
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter and cream cheese until smooth. Add in the granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and salt, mixing well. Gradually add the flour until the dough forms a ball. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Prepare the Filling
While the dough is chilling, prepare your fruit preserves in a small bowl. Set aside.

Roll Out the Dough
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). On a floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to about 1/8 inch thickness. Cut into squares (about 2x2 inches).

Add the Filling
Place about a teaspoon of fruit preserves in the center of each square. Fold the corners of the square into the center to form a pocket, pinching the edges to seal.

Bake
Arrange the filled kolaczki on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.

Cool and Dust
Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack. Once cooled, dust with powdered sugar before serving.
