I made these for my husband’s office holiday party 2 weeks ago, and I’m still getting compliments! One guy has been sampling Rugelach all over Manhattan and he maintains that mine (yours) is the best!! My mother-in-law told me not to even try to make Rugelach because it’s such a pain, but this recipe was super easy and well worth the effort!
These are incredible!! I’m baking up a couple of batches right now to put in Christmas goodie baskets. Perhaps if I stop shoving them into my facehole there might be some left for my friends.
I love love Rugelach,was introduced ’em first time a few days back when i baked ’em in the kitchen thanx to have the cake(we bake once a month-one recipe..virtually ie post n r respective bogs).
Your hints are so welcome…missed the egg wash yeah!
These are my husband’s favorite cookie! He has many fond memories of these cookies while growing up, so I made them and surprised him. Some of the recipes that I have come across looked too difficult to do, but this one was just what I needed. Thank-you! And yes, he loved them!!!
Just made these again today! They are delicious and get top rating with everyone I make them for, from my four year old to Michelin rated chefs. I use Irish butter and generic cream cheese and bake them for 25 min. Perfect every time!
