Ingredients

1 spray(s) cooking spray

1/4 cup(s) dried cranberries, finely chopped (coat knife with cooking spray before chopping to prevent sticking)

1/4 cup(s) walnut(s), finely chopped

1 Tbsp sugar, granulated

8 oz reduced fat crescent roll dough

1 Tbsp all purpose flour

1 Tbsp powdered sugar

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly coat a cookie sheet with cooking spray.
To make filling, combine cranberries, walnuts and granulated sugar in a small bowl; set aside.
Roll out crescent rolls on a lightly floured surface (use 1 tablespoon flour) to an 11-inch square. Separate along perforations into 8 triangles. Cut each in half lengthwise, making 16 long triangles.
Spoon a generous teaspoon of filling onto each triangle, leaving bare pastry at top and bottom of triangle. Roll each triangle from wide end to narrow tip.
Spread out rolled wedges on prepared cookie sheet. Bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Remove from oven and let sit 5 minutes.
Move rugalach close together so they are just touching each other. Place powdered sugar in a sieve and dust over rugalach. Yields 1 cookie per serving. (Note: These cookies taste best served warm. Reheat for 5 minutes in a preheated 325°F oven. Do not microwave – it will toughen the dough.)

Does anyone know if you can prepare these ahead and freeze, then bake later? Has anyone tried this?

Great recipe! I did run out of filling about half way through so be aware that a generous amount is not very generous on this recipe.
