1/2  cup dried apricots, chopped  
1 (12  ounce) jar apricot preserves  
6  ounces cream cheese  
1  cup butter  
2  cups flour  
1  beaten egg  
cinnamon sugar 
3  tablespoons sugar  
1  teaspoon cinnamon 
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F; line cookie sheets with parchment paper& set aside. 
In a small saucepan, cook the chopped apricots and preserves until melted, and apricots are soft. Chill in refrigerator. 
In a mixing Bowl, combine cream cheese, butter and flour into a stiff dough. Divide into 2 equal disks, wrap in plastic wrap and chill (atleast 1 hour). 
When dough is thoroughly chilled, cut each disk into 4 sections. Roll each section into a thin round, and cut into 4 or 6 wedges. 
Place approximately 1 tsp of preserve mixture on outer edge (wide, rounded side) of rolled dough. Moisten point of dough with a little water. Roll dough over the preserves, tucking in the sides& continue to roll to the point. Continue until all dough has been used up. 
Place each cookie on parchment-lined cookie sheet; brush with beaten egg and sprinkle with Cinnamon Sugar. 
Bake 15-20 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool on wire rack.
