Keufels (Original)

Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup margarine
• 3 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 3/4 cup chopped nuts
• 2 tablespoons melted butter
• 1 egg, beaten
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 24 muffin cups.

Mix 1 cup and 2 tablespoons flour, margarine, and cream cheese in a bowl using a fork. Form dough into 24 small balls. Press and shape each ball to form a shell in the prepared muffin cups.

Mix brown sugar, nuts, butter, egg, vanilla extract, and salt in a bowl. Spoon mixture into the prepared dough.

Bake in the preheated oven until keufels are lightly browned and filling is bubbling, about 20 minutes.
