AUTHENTIC HUNGARIAN WALNUT ROLLS



Authentic Hungarian Walnut Rolls image

These traditional Hungarian Walnut Rolls have a sweet, nutty filling inside a flakey, rich pastry! While they are traditionally made at Christmastime, they are outstanding any time of year!

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 ¼ cups all purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
8 oz cream cheese (room temperature)
1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
½ cup granulated sugar for rolling
½ pound walnuts (finely ground)
1 cup sugar
½ cup milk (boiled)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)

Steps:

  • Mix filling in a medium bowl using only ¼ cup of the boiled milk. The mixture should be thick.
  • If the filling is not spreadable, use the rest of the milk. I used all of it. It will thicken as it sits.
  • Note: You can make the filling ahead of time and freeze it until you are ready to use it. Just thaw at room temperature when you are ready to use.
  • Sift flour and salt together in a medium bowl and set aside.
  • Beat the cream cheese and butter together with a stand mixer or a hand mixer until completely incorporated and creamy (3-5 minutes).
  • Reduce the speed of the mixer and slowly add in the flour. I used 5 additions and completely mixed in the flour each time. The dough will be soft but not sticky.
  • Divide the dough into 4 equal parts and flatten each to ¾" thick. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until hard, at least 2 hours.
  • Pre-heat the oven to 375F. Move the oven rack one setting higher than the center.
  • Dust each side of the dough with flour. Generously coat a flat surface (countertop, marble board, etc.) with granulated sugar. Plop the dough on top and press gently to push some crystals into the dough. The sugar will keep your dough elevated off the rolling surface enough to keep it from sticking. Lightly coat the rolling pin with flour throughout the process, using as little as possible.
  • With a pastry wheel or sharp knife, trim the dough into a square and then cut the square into 16 smaller squares. My dough never rolled out into a perfect circle so I would just cut as many 1 1/2 " squares a possible, saving the scraps for later.
  • Place a dollop of filling in one corner of each square. I used ½ teaspoon.
  • Starting in the corner with the filling, roll the dough around the filling from corner to corner, gently pressing down as you roll. Grab the roll on both sides and pinch as you bend the roll to create a crescent shape. Gently move it to a parchment covered baking sheet, placing the Rolls no closer than 1" apart.
  • Repeat with all remaining squares.
  • Sprinkle the middles of the Rolls with just a touch of granulated sugar.
  • Bake 12-14 minutes or until the bottom edges are a golden and you can smell them. They should puff up slightly in the middle. With experience you can see when the dough is cooked. Let cool slightly on the pan on a wire rack and then move them gently to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Repeat with all remaining dough. Refrigerate and re-roll your scraps. Amazing.
  • For a more traditional cookie, you can omit the granulated sugar and dust the final, cooled cookie with powdered sugar. I will warn you that it won't be as divine.

NUT FILLING INGREDIENTS
1-2 lb nuts, ground (about 1 ½ lbs. walnuts or 3/4 lbs. pecans)
2- 1/2 c sugar
2 stick (1 cup) butter-melted
2 eggs
1 large cooking apple (grated)
3/4- 1 tsp cinnamon (per desired taste)
DOUGH INGREDIENTS
6-6 1/2 c sifted all-purpose flour
3/4 tsp salt
6 Tbsp sugar
2 yeast cakes (or 2 packages of dry yeast)

1 c sour cream
2 stick (1 cup) butter-melted or very soft
3 eggs (beaten)
OPTIONAL ICING INGREDIENTS:
2 c confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Instructions for making nut filling: Combine all ingredients except the butter. Add the melted butter and mix well. Heat mixture in large saucepan until the ingredients blend well and thicken slightly. Spread on rolled dough after the filling mixture has cooled. This makes more filling than enough filling for the Hungarian Nut Rolls. You can freeze any extra and use as a topping for an apple pie or top baked sweet potatoes or use in a coffee cake recipe-use your own imagination!
  • 2. Instructions for making dough: Dissolve yeast in warm milk (105-115 degrees F.). Combine the rest of the ingredients; add yeast and milk mixture, blending very well. Divide dough into 4 or 6 parts depending on length of nut roll wanted. Roll about ¼ inch thick, spread with nut filling and roll up jellyroll fashion. Let rise for 1 hour, or doubled in size. Bake in 350° oven for 30 to 40 minutes. Makes 4 large or 6 medium rolls
  • 3. Instructions for making optional icing: Combine icing ingredients; drizzle over loaves.

Just like grandmas! Beautiful and delicious. The nuts actually taste like candy after the recipe is all put together, so this may be surprisingly tasty even for the non-nut-lover.

Categories     Yeast Breads

Time 10h45m

Yield 3 rolls

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 fresh yeast cake (or 1 envelope)
1/4 cup warm milk
1/2 lb butter (2 sticks, softened)
4 egg yolks (use whites for nut filling)
1/2 pint sweet cream (half and half)
4 cups flour
1 teaspoon sugar
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 lb walnut meat, finely ground
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 egg whites, beaten to stiff stage
1 egg, beaten

Steps:

  • Dough: Let yeast dissolve in milk for a few minutes. Melt butter. Mix butter with beaten yolks in big bowl. In a separate bowl, sift flour, sugar and salt together. Mix yeast mixture with butter and egg yolks, sweet cream, and then flour mixture. Beat with wooden spoon or spatula until smooth or use hands to mix. The mixture will absorb the flour, cleaning the sides of the bowl. Shape into 3 balls and refrigerate overnight.
  • Prepare filling by mixing together nuts and sugar and then add vanilla. Fold in beaten egg whites.
  • Use 1 to 1 ¼ cups filling per roll.
  • Roll out each ball into rectangle 1/8 to ¼ inch thick. Sides will be about 12 by 16 inches. With paring knife, even off sides slightly. Spread with nut filling to within ½ inch of sides. Roll from short side up long side. Place the three rolls side-by-side on a 10 by 14 inch baking pan or cookie sheet and let rise in a warm area for 3 hours. Brush top with beaten egg. Bake at 325°F for 1 hour.
