These delightful Polish jam filled crescents are one of my favorite treats to make when I want something special without spending hours in the kitchen. With just an hour of prep time and twenty minutes of baking, rogaliki come together surprisingly quickly, making them perfect for impressing guests on short notice. The rich, buttery dough creates a tender crescent that practically melts in your mouth, while the tart plum jam filling provides a beautiful contrast. Plums are packed with antioxidants and fiber, so you can feel a little better about indulging in these little pastries. The best part is how economical they are to make at home compared to bakery prices, yet they taste just as elegant and homemade.

Instructions
- 1
Stir milk and yeast together in a bowl until smooth. Set aside until foamy, about 10 minutes.
- 2
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 3
Combine flour, butter, sour cream, sugar, eggs, and egg yolks in a large bowl. Stir in yeast mixture. Mix well using an electric mixer at first, then using your hands.
- 4
Turn out dough onto a floured work surface and knead until smooth, adding more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, if dough is sticking to your hands. Form dough into a long log and cut into 1 1/2-inch rounds. Cover rounds with a cloth.
- 5
Roll each round of dough into a thin circle. Cut the circle into six triangles, as you would a pizza. Place 1 teaspoon jam at the wider end of each triangle, then roll up like a croissant. Place on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat until all the dough is used up.
- 6
Bake in the preheated oven until rogaliki have risen and are golden brown, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven and cool completely, about 30 minutes.
- 7
Place confectioners' sugar in a bowl and stir in water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until a drizzling consistency is reached. Drizzle icing over cooled rogaliki.

Ultimate roast potatoes
After years of experimenting, I've finally cracked the code for roast potatoes that are impossibly crispy on the outside and fluffy within.

What I love most is how simple this really is: just potatoes, fat, flour, and salt. From prep to plate in just over an hour, you'll have restaurant quality results without any fuss.
