Ingredients
For the Kolache Dough:
- 4-1/2 cups all-purpose flour divided
- 2 envelopes Fleischmann's® RapidRise™ Yeast
- ½ cup sugar
- 1-1/2 teaspoons salt
- ½ cup water
- 1 cup 8 ounces sour cream
- ½ cup butter
- 2 eggs
For the Filling:
- 4 ounces cream cheese room temperature
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 large egg yolk
- 1 ½ tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 can 12 ounces pastry filling - blueberry, raspberry, apricot, poppy seed, prune, etc.
For the Streusel Topping:
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons cold butter diced
Instructions
- Combine 1-1/2 cups flour, undissolved yeast, sugar and salt in a large mixer bowl.
- Heat water, sour cream and butter until very warm (120° to 130°F).
- Gradually add to flour mixture. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally.
- Add eggs and 1 cup flour; beat 2 minutes at high speed.
- Stir in remaining 2 cups flour (by hand so as not to overwork) to make a stiff batter. Cover tightly with plastic wrap; refrigerate 2 to 24 hours.
- Remove dough from refrigerator. Divide into 24 equal pieces; shape each into a ball. Place balls on greased, or parchment lined baking sheets 2 inches apart. Cover; let rest 15 minutes.
- While the dough is resting, prepare the cream cheese filling and streusel topping.
For the Cream Cheese Filling
- In a medium bowl with an electric mixer, combine the cream cheese, sugar, and egg until fully incorporated and smooth.
- Sprinkle in flour and mix until combined.
For the Streusel Topping
- Place the flour, sugar, and butter into a food processor and pulse until crumbly, or use a pastry blender to incorporate the butter into the flour and sugar.
To Assemble the Kolaches
- Make a deep and wide indentation on each dough ball by pushing outward toward edge, leaving 1/2-inch ridge around outside. I used a metal tablespoon measuring spoon that was coated with nonstick cooking spray to create the indentations.
- Fill with a heaping teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture and top that with a heaping teaspoon of of pastry filling.
- Sprinkle kolaches with streusel topping.
- Cover with plastic wrap that has been sprayed with cooking spray.
- Let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
- Bake in preheated 350°F oven for 18 to 23 minutes or until done.
- Remove from baking sheets; cool on wire racks.
