Steps:
- In a bowl sift together flour and salt. Set aside.
- Cut up the butter and cream cheese into chunks, into a bowl to be creamed.
- Cream together until light and fluffy.
- Add the lemon zest, vanilla extract and vanilla bean seeds to the butter mixture. Combine well.
- Beat in the flour mix. Mix well.
- Work the dough into a ball, then split the dough into 2 balls.
- Flatten each ball into a 6 inch disk, and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 1/2 hours.
- Now it's time to make the filling...
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Then spread the nuts evenly out onto a cookie sheet. Toast the nuts in the oven for 6 to 9 minutes, or until lightly browned. Watch carefully, and don't burn them!
- When the nuts are toasted, set them aside to cool. When they are cooled, using a knife chop them up.
- Then get out your food processor!! Use it to combine the chopped nuts, jam, honey and cinnamon. Combine until the pecans are coarsely ground.
- After the dough has rested and chilled for the required time, take out one disc at a time from the fridge - it's time to roll it! (leave the other disc dough in the fridge until you are ready to work with it)
- Generously dust a clean work surface with about 2 tbsp to 1/4 cup of powdered sugar. (the more the better!)
- With a rolling pin roll the dough out into a 16 inch circle of even thickness. If the dough is too stiff, just knead it in your hands for a bit.
- Using half of the jam filling, spread it out evenly onto the dough, leaving about a 1cm space from the edge.
- Using a knife slice the dough first into 4 equal quarters.
- Then slice each quarter into 6 equal pieces.
- It's time to roll the rugelach! For each wedge, start from the edge of the dough and roll to the centre.
- Roll, roll, roll until you have a cute little crescent!
- Then take each dough crescent, generously dust it with powdered sugar, and place on a cookie sheet. Space them about 1 1/2 inches apart.
- Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 14-18 minutes, until the tops start turning golden brown.
- Immediately remove them from the pan, and place them on a cooling rack.
- Generously dust them with powdered sugar again.
- Repeat all the above steps for the second disc of dough and the remaining filling.

Steps:
- Make the dough: Whisk the flour, granulated sugar and salt in a medium bowl. Beat the cream cheese and butter in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until creamy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the vanilla. Reduce the mixer speed to medium; beat in the flour mixture until combined, about 1 minute. Turn out onto a sheet of plastic wrap, shape into a disk and wrap. Refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour or overnight.
- Cut the dough in half. Working with one half at a time, roll out each piece of dough into a 6-by-12-inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface; square off the edges. Refrigerate the dough rectangles until firm, at least 20 minutes.
- Make the filling: Spread 3 tablespoons apricot preserves on each dough rectangle, leaving a 1-inch border on one long side. Toss the pistachios, dried apricots, granulated sugar, cinnamon and salt in a small bowl. Sprinkle over the preserves and press in gently.
- Starting with the jam-covered long side, roll up each dough rectangle into a tight log. Place seam-side down on a baking sheet and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line a separate baking sheet with parchment paper. Brush the logs with the beaten egg and sprinkle with turbinado sugar. Cut the logs into 1-inch-thick rounds. Arrange seam-side down on the prepared pan, about 1 inch apart.
- Bake the cookies until golden brown, 25 to 35 minutes. Let cool completely on the pan.
APRICOT-PECAN RUGELACH
Cookies and Tarts, Week 11, April 5th These little swirly cookies are so rich and delicious. You can mix and match whatever filling you want: instead of pecans, you can use slivered almonds, walnuts or, my favorite, hazelnuts. You can use raspberry or strawberry jam instead of apricot, and you can use dried cherries or blueberries instead of raisons.

Steps:
- To make the dough, in a large bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Beat on low speed until blended. With the mixer running, add the cream cheese and butter and mix until large clumps of dough form. Add the sour cream and vanilla, and mix until just blended.
- Divide the soft, sticky dough into 4 equal portions. Gather each portion into a ball and flatten into a disk 4 inches in diameter. Wrap each disk in plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 1/2 hours or for up to overnight.
- Position a rack in the middle of the oven, and preheat to 375F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Remove 1 disk of dough from the refrigerator. Lightly dust a work surface and a rolling pin with flour. Roll out the dough into a 10-inch round. To add the filling, using a narrow offset spatula, spread 2 tablespoons of the preserves evenly over the dough, leaving a 3/4 inch boarder. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoon of the raisins and 1/4 cup of the pecans, and press them gently into the dough.
- Using a large, sharp knife, cut the dough into 12 equal wedges. Starting from the wide end, roll up each wedge tightly to the pointed end. Place point side down and 1 inch apart on a prepared baking sheet. Bend the edges slightly to curve inward, forming a crescent. When all the crescents are formed, brush the top of each with cream. Sprinkle the tops lightly with the cinnamon sugar. Repeat with the 3 remaining dough portions and filling and topping ingredients, filling both baking sheets.
- Bake the cookies, 1 sheet at a time, until the bottoms are light brown and the edges are golden, 22-25 minutes. let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer them to wire racks to cool completely. Makes 48 cookies.
JOAN NATHAN'S RUGELACH (CINNAMON, CHOCOLATE, OR APRICOT)
This is a straightforward and reliable cookie/pastry recipe from "Joan Nathan's Jewish Holiday Cookbook" by Joan Nathan. The original recipe doesn't call for any salt, but I think it enhances the flavour. You can play around with the fillings, substituting raspberry preserves for the apricot, pecans for the walnuts, or adding a little orange zest, raisins, or currants to the cinnamon-sugar filling. The dough can also be used to make hamentashen. Dough needs 2 hours refrigeration time.

Steps:
- To make the dough, place the cream cheese and the butter in an electric mixer fitted with a paddle. Cream at a low speed until combined, about 2 minutes. Add the flour and salt and mix until a very soft dough is formed, about 2 more minutes. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line 2 cookie sheets with baking parchment (or a Silpat baking mat).
- Mix the ingredients for the apricot or chocolate filling and divide the dough into 4 balls. On a lightly floured surface roll the balls out into 4 circles about 1/8-inch thick and 9 inches in diameter. Spread the apricot or chocolate filling over the dough. If using the cinnamon-sugar filling, brush the melted butter on first, then sprinkle the combined cinnamon and sugar.
- Using a dull knife, cut each circle into 16 pie-shaped pieces about 2 inches wide at the circumference. Roll up from the wide side to the center. Place the rugelach on the lined cookie sheets. Bake in the oven on the middle and lower racks, switching after 12 minutes, also switching back to front. Continue baking about 13 more minutes, or until golden brown. Remove the rugelach to racks to cool.
- Sprinkle the apricot and chocolate rugelach with confectioners' sugar just before serving.

PISTACHIO AND DRIED-APRICOT RUGELACH
Simmered dried apricots with a hint of vanilla are a perfect combination of tart and sweet. (We tested apricot jam in this filling, and it wasn't the same.) The mixture is slathered on rounds of cream-cheese dough, which is sliced into wedges and rolled into crescents before baking. The dough and filling can be made a couple of days in advance and refrigerated to make assembly easier (the dough disks wrapped in plastic, the filling in an airtight container).

Steps:
- Dough: In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat butter with cream cheese, granulated sugar, and salt on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add flour and beat on low until just combined. Divide dough into 3 disks; wrap each in plastic and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
- Filling: In a small saucepan, bring apricots, 1 1/3 cups water, granulated sugar, vanilla, and salt to a boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer until apricots are tender and most of liquid has been absorbed, 12 to 14 minutes. Transfer apricot mixture to a food processor and pulse until smooth. Let cool completely. (You should have about 2 cups filling; if not, thin slightly with water, a teaspoon at a time.)
- Meanwhile, finely grind pistachios in food processor. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one disk of dough to a 10-inch circle, 1/8 inch thick. Spread evenly with 2/3 cup apricot mixture. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup ground pistachios. With a pizza wheel, cut circle into quarters, then cut each quarter in half, then in half again, so you have 16 wedges. Starting at outside edge of each wedge, roll up into a crescent shape. Arrange 1 inch apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush with beaten egg, and sprinkle with sanding sugar and 1 tablespoon ground pistachios. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes. Repeat with remaining dough.
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Bake, rotating sheets halfway through, until golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes. Transfer rugelach on sheets to wire racks; let cool completely. Rugelach can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days.
