Ingredients

3 cups of flour
3 egg yolks
1 cup melted butter (use more if dough won't stick)
1 cake or packet of yeast, in just enough lukewarm water to dissolve it
1/4 cup half and half, plus more as needed
"Solo" brand apricot filling and prune filling (canned)
1 cup or more powdered sugar

Steps:

-preheat oven to 375 degrees -Sift flour into bowl -Add egg yolks (slightly beaten) and melted butter and mix by hand -add dissolved yeast - Mix thoroughly and then add enough half and half to make pie-dough consistency Roll out on powdered sugar to about an 1/8th inch thick, and cut into about 4inch squares. Fill with a bit of apricot or prune filling, and roll into a log shape, pinching the ends closed. (It helps to wet the dough with a little water on the edge to get it to stick to itself) Place "seam side" down onto greased cookie sheet (air-bake sheets work best). Bake for 8 minutes or until lightly browned. When cool, cover with a dusting of powdered sugar.

I'm not a huge fan of anise, but I still really enjoyed these cookies. The anise flavor is subtle and it pairs perfectly with the sweetness of the cookies.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still really good. I think I'll try making them with half the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of anise, so I was hesitant to try these cookies. But I'm so glad I did! The anise flavor is subtle and it pairs perfectly with the sweetness of the cookies.

I've tried a lot of different recipes for kiefels, but this one is by far the best. The cookies are crispy and flavorful, and they hold their shape perfectly.
