Procedures:
1With an electric mixer on medium speed, blend the sour crem and butter until smooth, about 2 minutes.
2Add the flour and salt and blend until the dough comes together, about 30 seconds.
3Form the dough into 2 disks, wrap in plastic and chill overnight.
4Remove the dough from the refrigerator and let soften slightly, for about 10 minutes.
5Preheat oven to 350 °F, with a rack in the middle.
6Lightly grease a baking sheet.
7On a lightly floured surface, roll out each disk to a circle about 9 to 10 inches in diameter and less than 1/8 inch thick.
8Prepare the filling: Spread 1/3 cup apricot jam over the surface of 1 disk, leaving a ?inch border around the edges.
9Sprinkle 1/3 cup of the walnuts, 1 tablespoon of the raisins and 1 tablespoon of the golden raisins over the jam.
10Roll up the dough jelly-roll fashion, pinching the ends together.
11Carefully lift the roll with your hands and transfer to the baking sheet.
12With a sharp knife, slice the roll halfway through into about 12 sections.
13Repeat the procedure with the remaining dough and filling.
14Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until golden brown.
15Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes.
16Cut the slices through; cool completely on the sheet.
17Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week or freeze for several months.
