EASY RUGELACH
Though rugelach is enjoyed year-round, this fruit-and-nut pastry is especially popular during Hanukkah. Cream cheese in the cookie dough -- which is chilled for hours before it is rolled out and filled with apricot preserves, currants, walnuts, and raisins -- helps produce an extra-flaky crust.
