Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup unsalted butter
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
0.33 cup sour cream
0.25 teaspoon salt
1 cup finely chopped walnuts
0.5 cup raisins
0.5 cup white sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

Combine butter, cream cheese, sour cream, flour, and salt in a food processor; pulse until crumbly.
Divide dough into four equal disks. Wrap each disk and chill for 1 hour, or up to 2 days.
In a bowl, combine walnuts, raisins, sugar, and cinnamon.
Roll each disk into a 9-inch circle, keeping other disks chilled. Sprinkle with walnut-raisin mixture and press lightly. Cut into 12 wedges. Roll wedges from wide to narrow, placing point-side up on ungreased baking sheets. Chill for 20 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
Bake chilled rugelach in the preheated oven until lightly golden, about 22 to 25 minutes. Cool on wire racks.
