CLEVELAND STYLE RUSSIAN TEA CAKES
A perennial favorite in Cleveland area bakeries, I have been searching for this recipe for years. It is definately not the recipe for traditional russian tea cakes or biscuits-except maybe in Cleveland. Found it on the hungrybrowser/Uncle Phaedrus website. It's origin is Eastern European and it's a pastry that is rolled with raspberry filling and raisins, but it's also made with a chocolate filling. The dough is reminiscent of a scone. It's rolled like you would a strudel and then sliced and baked individually.
