Instructions
Combine the flour and salt in a food processor and pulse a few times to mix.
1 1/2 cup flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt
Add the butter and cream cheese and process until a ball a dough forms. It will form fine crumbs first, and then as you continue to process it will clump together into a ball.
4 ounces cream cheese, 1/2 cup butter
Chill the dough for 2 hours.
Preheat the oven to 375 F.
Roll the dough out onto a lightly floured surface into a rectangle about 14 x 12 inches. I cut the edges off my rectangle to make it straight.
Spread the jam on the dough, and then spread the walnuts on top.
1/4 cup raspberry jam, 1/2 cup walnuts
Roll up from the long side and cut into 1/2 inch thick slices.
Dip one side of each slice in coarse sugar.
1/4 cup sparkling sugar
Bake sugar side up for 15 - 20 minutes, until the cookies are lightly browned.
