Serves/Makes: 18

***Pastry***
- 1/2 cup milk
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 ounce dry yeast
- 2 eggs
- 3 1/2 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
***Filling***
- 3 packages (8 ounce size) cream cheese
- 1 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Scald milk and set aside to cool. Place flour, sugar, salt, yeast and butter in a large bowl. Blend with pastry blender. Add eggs and vanilla to cooled milk. Blend milk and flour mixture with fork until it holds together. Wrap in wax paper and refrigerate for 2 hours. Cut into two portions and roll out into rectangles. Mix together the filling ingredients. Spread each rectangle with 1/2 of the cream cheese filling. Roll jelly roll style and shape like a horseshoe on greased cookie sheet. Brush with beaten egg whites. Bake at 375 degrees F for 30 minutes. Variations: Spread a thickened pie filling (cherry or blueberry are both good) over the cream cheese layer. Then roll and bake as directed. I haven't tried it yet but I think raspberry jelly would also be good in this recipe.
