Let’s make it

  1. Beat butter and cream cheese smooth. Mix in flour and salt. Divide into four discs, wrap and chill 1 hour.
  2. Heat oven to 350°F / 175°C. Line baking sheets. Mix walnuts, sugar and cinnamon.
  3. Roll one disc into a thin 9-inch circle. Spread with one-quarter of the jam and sprinkle with one-quarter of the walnut mixture.
