Christmas Bows

cookies

Dough
1/2 cup butter or margarine; cut up (1 stick)
1/2 cup sour cream
1 large egg
1 tablespoon water
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/4 teaspoons FLEISCHMANN'S Bread Machine Yeast
Granulated sugar
Powdered sugar
Fruit Filling
1/3 cup cherry or raspberry preserves
1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons butter or margarine; softened
1/2 teaspoon pure almond extract

To make dough: Measure all dough ingredients into bread machine pan in the order suggested by manufacturer. Process on dough/manual cycle. After the first knead (before the first rise), turn machine off and remove dough from pan. (Check your bread machine manual for approximate times.) Divide dough in half; wrap each in plastic wrap. Refrigerate 2 to 24 hours. To make filling: In small bowl, combine cherry preserves, bread crumbs, 1/4 cup sugar, butter and almond extract. To shape: Sprinkle work surface with granulated sugar. Roll one half of dough to 18 x 8-inch rectangle. Spread half of filling lengthwise over half of dough. Fold dough, lengthwise in half, to form 18 x 4-inch rectangle; trim uneven edges, if desired. Cut crosswise into 12 (l 1/2-inch wide) strips; twist each in center to form "bow". Place on lightly greased baking sheets. Bake at 375°F for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown, switching position of pans halfway through baking for more even browning. Remove from pans; cool on wire racks. Sift powdered sugar over cookies before serving. For Currant Filling, omit above filling. In small bowl, combine 1/4 cup each: graham cracker crumbs, packed brown sugar, red currant jelly and currants (dried); proceed as recipe directs for fruit filling. These tender cookies are made with a rich yeast dough that requires no rising.
