Directions
Rugelach (Filled Cream Cheese Cookies),I cannot imagine holiday-time without rugelach around. They are the most addictive, filled cookie ever! I usually make 2-3 times the recipe (inviting a friend over for coffee, chat and helpful rolling), then freeze and bake as needed. You will have none left by the end of the holidays, trust me. The bake time is approximate – it could be slightly more or slightly less, depending on how big you make the rugelach.,Is the bake time still 20-25 minutes at 350 if baked after preparing? i.e. never frozen,This was my mothers s recipe. I made them. They were fabulous. I was more successful with the jams and nuts or raisins, than the chocolate. The dough was fantastic. I think if you used crescent rolls it would taste as good, and save so much time. I loved this recipe
