Goat Cheese and Pepper Empanadillas

  1. In a food processor, pulse the flour with the salt to combine.
  2. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
  3. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and stir in the wine and vinegar just until a stiff dough forms.
  4. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and shape it into two 6-inch disks; do not overwork the dough.
  5. Wrap the disks in plastic and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
  6. Preheat the oven to 400.
  7. Working with 1 disk at a time, roll out the dough a scant 1/8 inch thick.
  8. Using a 3 1/2-inch biscuit cutter, stamp out 15 dough rounds from each disk.
  9. Brush each round with egg wash and top with 1 slightly rounded teaspoon of goat cheese and about 1/4 teaspoon of piquillo pepper.
  10. Fold the dough over the filling and crimp the edges with a fork to seal decoratively.
  11. Brush the empanadillas lightly with egg wash and arrange on a baking sheet.
  12. Bake for about 25 minutes, or until golden and slightly puffed.
  13. Let cool slightly before serving.
