Where was from your mother? :-)
The rugelach dough sounds close to what I remember. I'll definitely give that a try.

Mom's had a little "log" of filling rolled up in an open-ended wrapper, but that's a minor change. I remember liking to make them smaller, rather than larger, so the filling baked up well - and there were more of them!
Thanks!
