Sharon, This is the other recipe I was thinking of. These cookies are made in a mold and stuffed with walnuts.
Avital MA'AMOUL - NUT FILLED COOKIES MAKES 35-40 INGREDIENTS FOR THE DOUGH: 2� cups unbleached all-purpose flour � cup semolina 2� sticks parve margarine or 2 sticks butter 2 tsp vegetable oil � - � cup water INGREDIENTS FOR THE FILLING: 1� cups roughly ground walnuts 1 tsp cinnamon � cup sugar Directions: Combine the flour, semolina, margarine, and vegetable oil. Add the water gradually. Blend well. (A food processor is splendid for this.) Cover and set aside for 10 - 15 minutes in the refrigerator. Combine the walnuts with the cinnamon and sugar. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Either use the ma'amoul mold described above or take a piece of dough about the size of a walnut. Roll it into a ball and hollow out the center. Inside, place a heaping teaspoon of walnut filling. With your hands, mold the dough closed. Place each cookie on an ungreased cookie sheet. With the tines of a fork or tweezers with a serrated edge, make designs on the top of the cookie, being sure not to penetrate the crust. Bake in the oven for about 30 minutes. Do not brown; the cookies should look white. Cool. When hard, roll in confectioners' sugar.
