  • 3 ounces , Cream Cheese
  • 5 ounces , Flour
  • 11 ounces , Fruit Jam
  • 3 ounces , Powdered Sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon(s) , Ground Cinnamon

Instructions:
Cream butter and cream cheese together in a large mixing bowl until well blended and smooth; add the flour and beat well.
Shape the dough into a smooth ball, wrap in cling film, and chill in the fridge for 8 hours.
Remove dough from refrigerator 20 minutes before using and preheat the oven to 375F, gas mark 5.
Lightly flour a work surface and roll the dough out to 1/4-inch thick; cut into circles using a 3-inch biscuit cutter.
Place a small spoonful of jam in centre of each circle, moisten edges with water then fold over to form a half circle and press the edges together.
Place on un-greased baking sheets and bake for 15 to 20 minutes; while the empanadas are baking mix the sugar and cinnamon together.
