Directions:
- Soak the yeast in the 2/3 cup water with the one tablespoon sugar. Let set 10 minutes.
- In a large bowl, mix the shortening, sugar and eggs with a mixer.
- Add in the salt and scalded milk.
- Add in the yeast mixture.
- Mix in 3 cups flour. Add remaining flour a little at a time to make a soft dough.
- Cover with a tea towel and let rise in a warm place until doubled.
- While dough is rising, combine all ingredients for custard topping in 2 quart saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until thick. Be sure to stir it constantly as it will burn. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Punch down dough and make into kuchens. I divide the dough in half and then divide each half into fourths.
- Form each into ball and then press dough out and up sides of greased pans.
- Add fruit filling to each kuchen. I use cherry pie filling, cooked prunes, fresh sliced peaches or peach pie filling as well as cottage cheese filling.
- Top each kuchen with a few spoons full of custard filling and spread across fruit. Sprinkle with cinnamon.
- Let kuchen rise 10 minutes.
- Bake about 20 minutes at 350. Remove from pan and let cool on wire rack.
- As soon as you remove the kuchen from the pan, brush the edges with melted butter to keep them soft.
- Store in refrigerator or place in ziplock bag and freeze.
- These freeze well and will taste great reheated in the oven or microwave.
