Am looking for a cold dough recipe for cookies [View all]

that uses either butter or crisco, where you make a small dough, refrigerate, roll, spread with shortening, fold, refrigerate again, roll, spread with shortening, fold, refrigerate again, spread a 3rd time, fold, and refrigerate overnight.

This is most like a ladylock recipe. Some of these recipes call for a bit of vinegar too...

Roll out - cut into squares, fill with lekvar, apricot or nut filling. I've done these many times in the past but for some reason, can't locate the recipe.

Can anybody help?
