We love making these melt-in-your-mouth goodies. For extra fun, use Christmas cookie cutters instead of a biscuit cutter. -Glen & Sue Ellen Borkholder, Sturgis, Michigan

Time 50m

Yield 2-1/2 dozen.

Number Of Ingredients 16

6 to 7 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast
2 teaspoons salt
2 cups 2% milk
1/2 cup butter, cubed
1/2 cup water
6 large egg yolks
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 can (12 ounces) raspberry and/or apricot cake and pastry filling
ICING:
3 cups confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup butter, softened
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 to 6 tablespoons 2% milk

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine 3 cups flour, sugar, yeast and salt. In a large saucepan, heat milk, cubed butter and water to 120°-130°. Add to dry ingredients; beat just until moistened. Add egg yolks; beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough (dough will be sticky). Do not knead. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes., Turn dough onto a floured surface; roll to 1/2-in. thickness. Cut with a floured 2-1/2-in. biscuit cutter. Place 2 in. apart on lightly greased baking sheets. Brush with melted butter. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes., Preheat oven to 350°. Using the back of a spoon, make an indentation in the center of each roll. Spoon a heaping teaspoonful of raspberry and/or apricot filling into each indentation. Bake 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool., Combine confectioners' sugar, butter, vanilla, salt and enough milk to achieve desired consistency. Drizzle over rolls.

I'm not sure if I'm brave enough to try making these kolaches. They look a little complicated.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my kolaches turned out really dense. They were still edible, but they weren't very good.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my kolaches didn't turn out as good as I hoped. The dough was too dry and the fruit filling was too runny.

These kolaches were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good.

I'm not a huge fan of kolaches, but these were really good. The dough was light and fluffy, and the fruit filling was tart and sweet.

These kolaches are the perfect breakfast treat. They're sweet, but not too sweet, and the fruit filling is so refreshing.
