Looking for a recipie

[Alicia_039]

Hi, I live in Central Pennsylvania but I am originally from Texas.  Here is the recipe I am looking for.  These are sold here at our local farmer's market.  Benekies

It has a pecanish brown sugar filling... not sure exactly what all goes into it
looks like a rolled dough cookie with the filling and shaped into a crescent. 

They are sold like I said at the farmer's market but they are pretty expensive.  AFter asking around I have found out it is Hungarian but I have searched and so far no luck.  Pretty sure that Benekies is the local name for it and not the proper name.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Alicia

I honestly have no idea what you are talking about, but I did find something called butter horns or rugelach. You might want to look into it. Just thought I'd try to help.

I think what you are looking for is called kifli.

Check out this website and see if that's what you want.  Then you can look up the recipe for kifli.
