Roll each part on a lightly floured surface into a large rectangle.Spread a jar of preserves of choice over dough.Sprinkle with desried amount of chopped nuts.Bring up both long sides towards the center, overlapping a bit. Pinch or tuck under side edges. No need to rise double. Place on greased baking sheets and bake in a 350 oven 20 to 25 minutes until golden.Glaze or dust with powder sugar.Cool and cut into slices.Note: this is an extremely delicious pastry with a wonderful texture. A variety of fillings could be used instead of the preserves. However this is not a true Danish dough. Remember this dough does not use the butter bar and "turns" and chilling as would a true danish technique.
