Made these this morning. OMG . . . made fresh, and warm when eaten. Nothing better. I used slivered almonds. Almonds and Apricots…. classic combination. Someone has asked me to make a batch for their upcoming Holiday party. Make these. You will love them. Thanks ATK.
I make these every year for Hanukkah. They're a huge hit in our house.
If you freeze them for a couple of weeks before you bake them what is the procedure? Just straight from the freezer to the over or do they need to set out for a brief time?
Yummo! I've made these delicious cookies with pecan-raisin filling but I might try using mincemeat this year.
So happy they didn't force feed Bridget raisins again. (blech)
I love when Erin is on the show. She is so very straight forward. I wish she was used more to teach.
Erin, your sleeves are dabbing into the dough as you are making it
Oh goodness, those are mouthwatering! Savoury rugelach are also delicious. I once cooked a wordplay-themed dinner, and served scrumptious "arugula rugelach" as hors d'œuvres.
Yes, I am a huuuuuuuuge nerd.
Look very good and yummy 😊 thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe when it’s nearly the holiday around the corner….bless you all ❤🎉
Does it matter if the butter dribbles down? Aaron said no. The correct answer to the question is absolutely yes, it DOES matter!! If the butter dribbles down and under it, it burns/scorches the bottom and thus completely ruins the flavor and texture!! Butter them on a separate piece of parchment, just dab the bottom on a paper towel, and then move them to the parchment lined baking sheet.
If you're going to make them, make them correctly.
It looks similar to Hungarian kiflis that grandma used to make.
looks delicious 👍🏼👍🏼 😋 🌹
Pecans, craisins, add nutmeg, cut the apricot preserves with orange marmalade. I'm doing it!!!
🤗
This is insane, my family is from Slovakia and this is more difficult than necessary
Cereal bags beat plastic wrap for rolling out. Give it a try! (Inner bag for boxed cereal)
God I love rugelachs. Now I know how to make them at home. Muhaha
We love these! Thanks!
Oh, yeah
Instead of raisins my mom used baby currents. So good.
WHERE’S BRIDGET? IS SHE OKAY? 🙏🏼
