Ingredients:
- 1/2 cups - warm water
- 1 packages - active dry yeast (1/4 oz packet)
- 4 teaspoons - sugar
- - dash of salt
- 4 tablespoons - butter room temp
- 1 - egg yolk
- 3 1/2 cups - flour
- 3/4 cups - warm milk
- 6 ounces - cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 teaspoons - lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons - sugar
- 1 - egg yolk
- 1 tablespoons - butter, melted
- 1/4 cups - flour
- 1/4 cups - sugar
- 1/2 cups - warm water
- 1 packages - active dry yeast (1/4 oz packet)
- 4 teaspoons - sugar
- - dash of salt
- 4 tablespoons - butter room temp
- 1 - egg yolk
- 3 1/2 cups - flour
- 3/4 cups - warm milk
- 6 ounces - cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 teaspoons - lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons - sugar
- 1 - egg yolk
- 1 tablespoons - butter, melted
- 1/4 cups - flour
- 1/4 cups - sugar
Directions:
1. Combine water, yeast, and 1 tsp sugar. Let sit for 5 minutes until activated.
2. Beat butter and remaining 3 tbsp sugar together. Add the egg yolk and salt. Then, add yeast mixture, flour & milk. Combine and knead until no longer really sticky.** I use a dough hook and let it go until it comes away from the sides of the bowl but not longer than that.
3. Grease a bowl and add the dough. Cover and let rise in a warm place until it’s doubled in size (36-55 minutes). Do not touch until it’s doubled in size.
4. Line a 9x13 dish with parchment and grease the sides.
5. Divide dough into 16 pieces. *I like to make them balls (sts) and put them in the pan in 4 x 4 lines. Brush with melted butter, cover and let rise again for 36 minutes.
6. Preheat oven to 375°F. Prepare filling & crumble (see below).
7. When the Kolaches dough has risen, I take my middle and index fingers on both hands and press them into the middle of the dough and move my fingers out until the dough has a sort of rectangle shape indented for the filling. The “hole” should be about 3/4” deep (sts).
8. Fill each kolache with a heaping tablespoon of your filling choice (my favorite is the cream cheese filling or blueberry jam. My kids like strawberry jam). If you choose to fill with jam, place a large dollop of cream cheese filling on top of the jam.
9. Sprinkle crumble heavily over the Kolaches and bake at 375°F for 25-36 minutes or until slightly golden.
*For Cream Cheese Filling - combine all ingredients together until smooth
**For Crumble Topping - Combine until incorporated and crumbly
