Ingredients:

  • 1 package (1/4 oz) active dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup warm water (110o to 115o)
  • 1 cup warm milk (110o to 115o)
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup mashed potatoes (without added butter or milk)
  • 1 tsp salt
  • filling:
  • 2 packages (3 oz each) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 egg
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 can (21 oz) cherry pie filling
  • glaze:
  • 1 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 1 tbsp plus 1 tsp milk

Directions:

  1. In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in water. Add the milk, butter, sugar, potatoes, egg yolks and salt; beat until smooth. Add enough flour to make a very soft dough. Do not knead. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
  2. Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; cover and let rest for 10 minutes. Roll out about 1/4 cup of dough into a rope about 8-9 in. long. Tie in a knot; tuck one end on top and the other end under bottom of knot. Repeat with remaining dough. Place in greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Make a deep depression in each roll.
  3. In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese, egg, sugar, lemon peel and vanilla. Spoon 1 tablespoon into each roll. Make an indentation in cream cheese filling; top each with 2 to 3 cherries from the pie filling (discard remaining cherry sauce or save for another use). Let rise until almost doubled, about 40 minutes.
  4. Bake at 400° for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool. Combine glaze ingredients; drizzle over kolaches. Store in the refrigerator. Yield: 1-1/2 dozen.
