    1      C             Water -- Cold
    3                    Egg Yolks
    1      Tbsp          Sugar
      1/4  Tsp           Salt
    1      Pkg           Dry Yeast
    1      Tsp           Lemon Juice
    4      C             Flour -- Sifted
      1/2  Lb            Butter
    3                    Egg Whites
      3/4  C             Jam -- Your favorite
      1/2  C             Nuts -- Chopped
    2      Tbsp          Bread Crumbs
 
 Mix together first 6 ingredients. In another bowl, work together 4 cups of
 flour and 1/2 pound butter until crumbly. Add above mixture and mix until
 the consistancy of pie crust. (If too thin, add flour. if too thick, add a
 little water.) Put in refrigerator while mixing filling.
 
 Beat 3 egg whites until stiff. Beat 1/2 to 3/4 cups of your favorite jelly
 or jam. (Knowing my grandmother, this was rad raspberry jam!) Gently fold
 in 1/2 cup chopped nuts and 2 tblsp bread crumbs
 
 Roll out the dough (1/3 at a time) on a sugared board until about 1/8″ to
 1/4″ thick. Cut into 2″ to 3″ squares. Put a little filling at one end,
 roll up and put on ungreased pan, cut side down. Bake at 350° until golden
 brown (about 20 minutes). Cool before removing. When cool, decorate with 2
 green leaves and a red rosette on top centered along the length.
 
 Theese are nothing short of amazing!
