Rugelach





Can't believe I'm 3 for 3 now with the recipes.  This was by far the most time consuming.  And lots and lots of dishes.  I didn't think my family would like the prune and apricot (and my son has a peanut allergy and doesn't like any nuts) so I did half with raspberry jam and half with mini chocolate chips.  My family liked it but I didn't think it was worth the time.  It was very difficult to roll the dough up and I ended up rolling it out on parchment paper and then using the parchment paper to roll the cookie up (like a bamboo sushi mat).  Maybe I will like it more tomorrow.  Taking it to my Bible Study for snack. 

All the other bakers' links can be found here LYL:Rugelach and the hosts' links have the recipe posted.

  4. Using the parchment to roll is a good idea.
    Fortunately, the next recipe is far less labor intensive!

  6. You did a great job! I tried both flavors (for scientific reasons, of course) and can say that these were delicious. Very elegant addition to our morning fare.

  7. I also had trouble with the dough, my bench scraper was my best friend that day! Do you live in Kailua on Oahu or Big Island? Just wondering b/c I'm from Oahu (but live in Long Beach now) and you're the first other TWD member I've seen so far from hawaii :)

  8. totally agree with you- this one was labor intensive & kitchen destructive! But, in the end, quite delicious!

  10. Oh yes, this was not a recipe that came together quickly. Bummer you didn't love it--hopefully your bible group appreciated it!
