Spoon about 3 tablespoons chicken mixture in a line down the center of each tortilla and fold tortilla in half, enclosing filling. Starting at the filled side, roll the folded tortilla into a cylinder. Place each enchilada, seam-side down, into the prepared baking dish.

Cream Cheese Kolacky
Kolacky are delicious cream cheese pastries with a fruit filling. The dough for these cookies is what makes them exceptional. The most popular fillings are peach, apricot, raspberry, and date but you can use whatever you like. This year I'm trying Michigan cherry preserves and cranberry marmalade. I always quadruple this recipe for the holidays. You better hide a few for Christmas day — these are the ones that go first!
