This is yeast bread that has a prune filling. I am not sure of the name in Czech. It rises overnight in refrigerator. It is a very old recipe that uses lard or butter but I listed butter. Libbie put lard in her recipe so I am guessing that is what she used. If any one knows what this is called in Czech please mail me so I can add it. Another one of Libbie's recipes. this makes a HUGE amount i think you could do half and be ok im guessing these are like a christmas kinda bread but i dont know for sure it makes a soft fine grained bread Ingredients:
3 teaspoons yeast |
1/4 water, warm |
4 cups flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2 tablespoons sugar |
1 cup butter or 1 cup lard |
1 cup milk, cold |
3 egg yolks |
3 egg whites, beaten stiff |
1 cup sugar |

1. Dissolve yeast in 1/4 cup warm water.
2. Mix flour, salt, sugar.

7. Roll out (EACH PIECE) 1/4 inch thick.
8. Spread on filling and roll up like a jelly roll. i sprayed cookie sheet with pam and patted out with floured hands
