How to Make Mini Chocolate Or Fruit Rugelach
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1/2 cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Gradually add 4 cups all-purpose flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt, mixing until a dough forms.
- Wrap dough in plastic wrap and chill for at least 30 minutes.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to 1/8 inch thickness.
- Cut dough into 3-inch circles using a cookie cutter or knife.
- For fruit rugelach: Spread a teaspoon of your favorite jam on each circle. For chocolate rugelach: Melt 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips with 1 tablespoon of heavy cream to make a ganache and spread on each circle.
- Optional: Sprinkle with chopped nuts and dried fruit.
- Roll up each circle starting from one edge.
- Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Let cool slightly before drizzling with melted chocolate (optional).
