KOLACHKI, KOLACKY, KOLACHY, KOLACE, KOLACHI, KOLACHE, KOLACHKE,
Call these cookies whatever you want but there are very small differences... This recipe was given to me by my Slovakian MIL... I must admit that I bought some of the fillings premade one year but I usually make my own. ... but they are delicious anyway... Check the Jewish or International section of your grocery store for premade.. The brand name is SOLO.... This will take several hours to prepare and cook... You can cut the dough recipe in half or quarter if you wish to make less.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350.
- COOKIE DOUGH_____________ Allow cream cheese and butter to soften to room temperature Mix till well Blended.
- Add Flour a little at a time and mix in till well blended.
- Divide into balls. one ball for each filling you will make and wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Using one ball at a time, Roll out square about 1/8 inch thick on board sprinkled with flour or confectioners sugar or a combination. You can cut the dough into 2 inch squares and place a little filling on each square and fold the dough over. As a time saver, I place a little filling in a line across the bottom of the dough and roll till filling is covered. Should be about 1/2 inch in diameter (or a little more).
- With a knife, cut through the dough at that point and cut the roll into 1 1/2 to 2 inch pieces. Then place a little filling in a line across what is now the bottom and repeat steps.
- Place on ungreased cookie sheet and bake for about 20 minutes.
- (I found that they were better if I turned them over after about 10 minutes) Check them at 10 and see how they are doing on the bottom.
- Cool for a couple of minutes then place on wire rack to cool.

KOLACKY
We've been making this cookies on the Slovak side of my family for generations and they are my favorite! They take a lot of work but taste much better than the kind you can get in the store and well worth it! Also, the filling can be made or bought (we find Solo brand is best), but it is often hard to find the nut kind so I have included instructions for that as well.

Steps:
- Mix softened cream cheese, softened butter, baking powder, and egg yolks with a pastry blender.
- Mix in sour cream and sift in flour.
- Add vanilla and knead the dough until your hands are clean (i.e. it all sticks together and is a uniform mixture).
- Roll into 1/4 cup balls and refrigerate overnight (~8 hrs).
- Prepare the filling (if store-bought, skip this step). Beat the egg white until it is foamy. Mix with crushed walnuts, melted butter, sugar, brown sugar and cinnamon. Store in the refrigerator.
- Preheat the oven to 350.
- Roll dough flat, using flour to prevent sticking to surface and rolling pin. Only remove what dough from the refrigerator that you are currently rolling (leave the rest of the dough balls in the fridge to keep firm).
- Use a square-shaped cookie cutter to cut squares out of the dough. Place a little filling in the middle of the square. Then pinch 2 opposite corners together. Fold this over and pinch again. (This step is a bit of a personal preference, there are many different ways to shape and fill kolacky).
- Bake 9-12 minutes on a non-stick pan, or until light brown.

CZECH PASTRY COTTAGE CHEESE KOLACKY
A kolacky is a small dinner roll-like pastry which is folded, enclosing filling in the center. The most common fillings include Cottage Cheese, prune, poppyseed, apricot, apple, blueberry and raspberry. both open-faced and closed-face kolackys were made in Czechoslovakia. the closed kolacky came into being because the fruit in the open-faced buns would get all over the working man's lunch bucket. The men had their wives fold over the pastry so it wouldn't mess up the other things in the lunch bucket. This is a old recipe from my grandmother who came from Prague Czechoslovakian at the turn of the 20th century.
