Number Of Ingredients 10

danish pastry dough, posted separately
4 tablespoons sweet butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, mixed with
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 cup chopped walnuts or 1/2 cup pecans
1/4 cup chopped raisins

Steps:

  • On a lightly floured pastry cloth or floured board, roll dough to an 18x9-inch rectangle.

  • Sprinkle evenly over sugared surface.
  • From longer side, fold one third of dough over.
  • Then bring opposite side over this, to make a three layer strip 18x3-inches.
  • Pinch together, to seal. With a sharp knife, cut strip crosswise into 6 sections.
  • On folded side of each, make 3 1-inch cuts, evenly spaced TO FREEZE: Arrange on tray.

  • Brush tops with rest of butter. Wrap tray with foil; seal, label and freeze TO BAKE: Line a cookie sheet with brown paper.
  • Arrange "claws" 2 inches apart on ungreased brown paper.
  • Let rise in warm place until double in bulk about 1- 1 1/4 hour. Meanwhile preheat the oven to 375°F.
  • Mix the ingredients for the sugar glaze together in a small bowl.
  • Bake 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Let cool slightly on wire rack.
  • Drizzle glaze over warm rolls.

These bear claws were a waste of time. They were dry and flavorless.

I'm not a huge fan of cinnamon, so I was hesitant to try these bear claws. But I'm so glad I did! They were amazing! The cinnamon sugar filling was just the right amount of sweetness.
