- RUGELACH
-
- 1 pkg dry yeast
- 1 cup sugar
- 3 cups flour
- 1 cup finely chopped walnuts
- 1 cup butter
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 3 egg yolks
- 1 cup sour cream
-
- Sprinkle the yeast over the flour. Add softened butter and blend.
- Stir egg yolks into the sour cream and add to the flour mixture.
- Form into a ball, wrap in foil, and refrigerate over night.
-
- Combine the sugar, chopped walnuts, and cinnamon.
-
- Divide the dough into 4 balls. Spread the sugar mixture on a board.
- Roll 1/4 of the dough into a 10 to 12 inch round, coating both sides
- well with the sugar mixture. Cut the rolled dough into 16 wedges.
- Roll up from the wide end first. Bake on a cookie sheet in a 325
- degree oven for 30 minutes.
-
- My favorite variant: Place two or three raisins at the wide end of
- each wedge before rolling. I also dip each rollup in the sugar
- mixture before I place it on the cookie sheet.
