Slovak Kolachie
Mrs. Mary C. Yurchak

1 cup milk, scald
1/4 cup shortening
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cake yeast or 1 package dry yeast
1/4 cup lukewarm water
2 egg, well beaten
3 1/2 cups enriched flour

Combine milk, shortening, sugar and salt. Cool to lukewarm. Add yeast, softened in warm water and eggs. Gradually stir in flour to form a soft dough. Beat or knead vigorously. Cover with cloth and let rise in warm place until double in bulk, about 2 hours. Turn onto lightly floured board. Knead slightly. Let dough rise 10 minutes and keep covered. Roll out on floured board and cut in 4-inch squares. Place filling in center of dough and pick up all 4 corners and twist to hold in filling. Place in greased pan and bake 30 to 35 minutes at 350 degrees. This dough is also good for coffee cake and cinnamon rolls.

For filling, use any cooked fruit, such as prunes, apricots or peaches. It must be dry and chopped in small pieces.
