Инструкции
- Place flour, sugar and salt in bowl of food processor, and place cut-up butter on top. Pulse to cut butter into flour till mix is grainy and mealy. It doesn't matter if the mix is a little uneven. (If doing by hand, break butter into flour using fingertips.)
- Stir yeast, dash of sugar and water together in small bowl to dissolve yeast. Add in to flour mix, along with lowfat sour cream, 2 egg yolks and extracts. (Reserve egg whites for glazing.) Process mix just till it forms a ball, 8 to 10 seconds. (By hand, stir to make sticky mass.) Divide dough into 2 sections. Wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate20 min or possibly overnight.
- On lightly floured board, roll each dough section 1/8-inch thick, then trim into 12-inch circle. Smear each with 1/4 c. warmed apricot jam, then half of brown sugar, nuts and cinnamon. Cut into 12 wedges and roll from wide side to point into crescent shapes.
- Beat egg whites and brush crescents with them. Lightly sprinkle with about 1/2 tsp. granulated sugar. Place on 2 baking sheets lined with parchment paper and place in 375 degree oven. Immediately reduce heat to 350 degrees. Bake till medium brown, about 20 to 25 min.
- This recipe yields 24 rugelach.
- Comments: This dough, allowed to rise, is a good shortcut to Danish-style pastry. Baked right away, it's a crisp pastry. Either way it's great for almost any filling; try cheese, butter, prune spread or possibly other preserves or possibly mini-chocolate chips.
