My Favorite Hanukkah Rugelach
Ingredients
Dough:
3 cups all-purpose flour
3/8 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup granulated sugar
11/4 cups (21/2 sticks) unsalted butter, very cold, cut into 16 chunks
1 large egg
1 large egg yolk
1/4 cup sour cream
Filling:
1/2 cup hazelnut spread (such as Nutella)
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2/3 cup finely chopped (or ground in food processor) semisweet, white or milk chocolate
2/3 cup finely ground pecans-
Eggwash:
1 egg whisked with a pinch of sugar
Garnish:
Granulated or confectioners' sugar for sprinkling
Preparation
1. Make dough: Using a food processor, blend flour, salt, and sugar. Add butter and pulse to break butter into flour mixture. Mix until butter is in pea-sized pieces. Add egg, egg yolk and sour cream and process to form a soft dough or a mass.
2. Turn out onto a lightly floured work surface and shape into a flattened disc. Divide into two portions and place each in a plastic bag and chill 1-2 hours or up to 3 days.
3. Stack two baking sheets together and line the top one with parchment paper.
4. Assemble pastries: Position rack to center of oven and preheat to 350°F. Allow dough to come to room temperature. Have filling ingredients nearby.
5. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out a portion at a time into a circle about 10" in diameter. Using a pastry wheel, cut dough into 10-12 wedges.
6. Smear on half of hazelnut spread, then sprinkle with half of cinnamon, chocolate and pecans. Tightly roll each pastry, from outer edge into center, into a small, snug crescent. Using a pastry brush, brush pastries with eggwash and sprinkle with sugar. Place pastries about 2" apart on prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough.
7. Bake until nicely golden brown, about 25-32 minutes. Once cooled, you can also dust these with confectioners' sugar.

Flavonoids, also found in wine are types of pigments that are water-soluble and created by plants of many varieties. There are thousands of different flavanoids. Plants use flavonoids in the process of photosynthesis.
How the human body actually uses and/or processes flavonoids is still not determined but they have been linked to good health in many areas - particularly blood circulation.
If you are a science buff, then you'll be interested to know that flavonoids are polyphenolic compounds containing 15 carbon atoms, two benzene rings joined by a linear three carbon chain. If you're just an average, everyday person with a sweet tooth, then you'll be interested to know that good things are contained in a single bite of dark chocolate. So please, put down the chemistry book and enjoy some today!
