Hungarian Nut Cookies

Very good friends of our's made these at christmastime and i finally asked for the recipe and tried making them myself. They are time-consuming, but oh, so good and worth the time and effort! Perhaps they'll become a holiday tradition in your home! (prep time includes minimum chilling time)

Place tsp.

Of filling in center of circles.
