If you have never had Rugelach cookies before, you must! They are absolutely to die for! The cookie literally melts in your mouth as the dough is made with flour, butter, cream cheese, and sour cream. We made three different types of filings for the rugelach cookies. The types of fillings are: 1. cocoa powder-sugar mixture with mini chocolate chips and pecans 2. cinnamon-sugar mixture with pecans and currants 3. peach preserves with pecans and currants.
We searched all over the internet when we were looking for a recipe to try. There were so many, but there was one recipe that stood out to us; it was submitted by an individual to Allrecipes.com. The reason why we chose to try this recipe was the fact that the dough contained butter, cream cheese and sour cream. (yep, you guessed it, these cookies are definitely not fat free, but hey, you only live once, right?! It's all in moderation). With this combination, a flaky, buttery and melt-in-your-mouth type of cookie will/should undoubtedly develop.
So, what do you say? Let's start baking some cookies!
