Directions
Butterhorns Aka Rugelach / Rugulach / Snails / Schnecken, One of my favorite cookies of all time, these are fabulous warm from oven, but also keep well in an airtight container My Hungarian/Austrian Grandmom called these Butterhorns , an aunt on the other side called her version Schnecken and I have seen versions of this also under Rugelach or Rululach It really does not matter what they are called, they are AWESOME!!!! (Chill time not included), I fell in love with all kinds of Austrian pastries while traveling in Austria and dining at Vienna’s Demel I made these cookies as one of my Christmas gifts for my dad last year Since my dad has a nut allergy, I substituted toasted sesame seeds for the walnuts or pecans The dough bakes to be light and flaky while the cinnamon, brown sugar filling melts and caramelizes developing a surprisingly deep, delicious taste My father actually mistook the filling for date spread or fig jam because of its intensely fragrant flavor Thank you, Karen=^ ^=, for this beautiful Eastern European delight!
