1. In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese and butter and mash until smooth. Blend in the flour until incorporated. Foorm into a ball, wrap in wax paper and chill for at least 2 hours.

2. Position the rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375 degree F.

3. In a small bowl, using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the eggs until thick and light. Beat in the Muenster cheese, onion and Tabasco. Season with pepper to taste.

4. Lightly flour a work surface and roll out the chilled dough to a thickness of 1/8 inch. Using a 2 1*2-inch round cookie cutter or upturned glass, cut out as many rounds as possible. Gather the scraps of dough, roll out again and cut as many rounds as possible. Repeat until all the dough is used.

5. Drop teaspoonfuls of the cheese filling in the center of each round, fold them in half, and seal the edges together. Brush with the egg white and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Place the turnovers on an ungreased baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch between them. Bake for about 20 to 25 minutes, or until lightly browned. Cool on wire racks and temperature.
