Make Rugelach

Rugelach, a traditional Jewish crescent-shaped pastry, hails from Eastern Europe (Americans added the cream cheese to the recipe). My limited research found several Yiddish interpretations for rugelach, including “little twists” and “royal” and I won’t claim to know the answer. Here are a few recipes to make your own. First, find chocolate cherry rugelach from Family Fun (pictured above). Find rugelach on allrecipes.com here (pictured below). And lastly, about.com has links to thirteen different recipes.

You must be reading my mind…I’ve been thinking about these all week. We use ot make them for holidays when I was a kid. We always did a nut one and a fruit one, sometimes poppy seed filled ones too-yum!I think I need to go to the store and make some this year.
