Buttermilk rugelach

Makes 32 large rugelach
2 & 1/2 cups all puspose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup margarine (8 tablespoons), melted
1 cup buttermilk
1 egg
1/2 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup raspberry jam
1 cup raisins
4 tablespoon fine dry bread crumbs.

Egg wash
1 egg
2 tablespoon milk

For dough: mix in a medium ball flour and baking soda. In another ball mix margarine, buttermilk, egg, sugar and salt. Slowly add flour mixture to a wet margarine mixture. Mix to obtain an homogeneous dough. Turn out dough onto a lightly floured work surface and knead until smooth. After dough is smooth and elastic, wrap dough in plastic wrap. Put the dough into the fridge for 8-10 hours (better overnight).

Preheat the oven to 350F. Divide dough into 4 equal parts. Roll each portion into a 9-inch round, about 1/8" thick, on a floured board. Use a pastry brush to layer raspberry jam (1/4 cup) on a round dough. Sprinkle with raisins (1/4 cup) and 1 tablespoon bread crumbs. With chefs knife or pizza cutter, cut each round into 8 wedges. Roll wedges from wide to narrow, you will end up with point on outside of cookie. Place on ungreased baking sheets and brush with an egg wash. For egg wash, mix very well egg with milk

Bake rugelach in the center rack of your oven for 20 minutes until lightly golden. Cool on wire racks. Store in airtight containers
Filling might be different. I think, these pastries will be particularly good with poppy seed filling from Solo.
