Rugelach

Rugelach was pinched from <a href="http://www.cookingchanneltv.com/recipes/rugelach-recipe/index.html" target="_blank">www.cookingchanneltv.com.</a>

"Rugelach are a traditional Jewish cookie, eaten for special holidays or any other occasion. The dough is soft and tender, with just a slight zip from the cream cheese and zest, which is the perfect complement to their sweet centers. You can make them with traditional fillings like prunes or poppy seeds, but I like mine packed with bright preserves, chopped-up nuts and even shaved chocolate...."
