old family recipe from friend for a cream cheese yeast pastry No only for Christmas, great for any holiday! This makes 4 loaves each, so freeze extra! Ingredients:
dough |
6 tablespoons sugar |
3 eggs |
2 tablespoons yeast |
1 cup sour cream |
1 cup butter (2 sticks) at room temperature |
5 cups flour |
filling |
3 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese |
3 egg yolks |
1 tablespoon vanilla |
1/2 cup sugar |
Directions:

10. Combine all the filling ingredients and mix well.
11. Using a food processor helps .
12. Divide the dough into 4 equal parts.
13. Roll out each into an oblong, rectangular shape, fairly thin.
