Apricot Strudel

    Ingredients:

      1 cup butter
      1 8 oz. package cream cheese
      2 cups flour
      2 cups apricot preserves
      1 cup chopped nuts
      15 ounces white raisins
      4 ounces flaked coconut

    Directions:

    Pastry: Powdered sugar (optional) Blend butter and cream cheese together well. Add  flour. Mix until well blended. Make 4 balls. Chill 3-4 hours.

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Roll each ball out into a 14-16" rectangle. Combine  preserves, nuts, raisins, and coconut. Spread onto each dough rectangle without tearing.  Roll each as for jelly rolls, turning ends under. Place on ungreased baking sheet. Flatten  each roll slightly to make them even. Bake 45 minutes. Cool. Refrigerate several hours  before slicing. Cut into 1 1/2" slices. Sprinkle each slice with powdered sugar, if  you wish.

    24 slices

    This strudel freezes well.
