These are a bit labor intensive; but well worth it. Nice for Christmas.
3-1/2 cups flour
3 eggs
8 oz. cream cheese
1 cup butter
2 1/3 cups walnuts
1 (12 fluid ounce) can evaporated milk
1 cup white sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/3 cup confectioners' sugar for decoration
Mix together flour, eggs, cream cheese and butter. Mix until well blended and refrigerate until firm.
To make Filling: Grind walnuts very fine or put finely chopped nuts between pieces of wax paper and roll with rolling pin to mash them. Put mashed nuts in a saucepan with evaporated milk, sugar and vanilla. Boil until mixture becomes thick. Simmer on low heat.
Roll out small pieces of dough in confectioner's sugar. Put a small amount of filling on each piece and roll up; shape each into crescent shape. Bake at 350* on greased cookie sheets for about 20 minutes.
