Daring bakers Challenge: Armenian Nazook

Blog-checking lines: The Daring Bakers’ April 2012 challenge, hosted by Jason at Daily Candor, were two Armenian standards: nazook and nutmeg cake. Nazook is a layered yeasted dough pastry with a sweet filling, and nutmeg cake is a fragrant, nutty coffee-style cake.

Finally I made my first Daring Bakers Challenge: Armenian Nazook. I used the recipe Jason provided with small adjustments.

Ingredients:
Pastry dough

• 420 gr Flour
• 1 pack  dry YEAST
• 225 gr Sour Cream
• 225 gr softened BUTTER (room temperature)

Filling

• 210 gr flour
• 340  SUGAR
• 120 gr Softened butter (room temperature)
• 15 ml VANILIA extract
• 25 gr Sour cream
• 3 tbs grasped COCOnut

2 eggyolks

Preparation:

Pastry dough

Mix the ingredients until its not sticking to the BOWL. Put it in the Freezer for 3-5 Hours.

Filling:

Mix the ingredients.

After freezing cut the dough into four Parts. Knead the dough and ROLL it into an oval with a little flour. Put the FILLING in the dough and roll it up.

Cut the roll into small diamond shapes and put eggyolk on top and bake it on 180 degrees.

Enjoy!
