This is an old Slovak recipe. In Slovak it is called Roshky. The rolls are filled with lekvar, a thick, soft fruit spread. This is an all day project. This recipe will make 7 or 8 twelve inch loaves, or some dough may be reserved for lekvar squares.
Ingredients:
2 cups margarine
6 eggs
1 cup white sugar
2 cups sour cream
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
12 cups all-purpose flour
2 (.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast
1 pound ground walnuts
1 cup white sugar
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
8 ounces apricot preserves
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 egg yolk
Directions:
1. Prepare two fillings. Mix together walnuts, 1 cup sugar, and 1/ 8 teaspoon cinnamon. In a separate bowl, mix lekvar with lemon juice and 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon.
2. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup sugar, 2 cups butter or margarine, and 6 eggs. Mix well. Add sour cream, milk, flour, yeast, and salt. Beat thoroughly until dough does not stick to hands.
3. Form dough into 7 or 8 balls. Roll out each ball on a lightly floured board to a rectangle.
4. Brush dough with melted butter. Fill with fillings. Roll tight. Place on greased pans, and let stand for approximately 4 hours to raise before baking.
5. Brush tops with beaten egg yolk just before placing in oven.
6. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for about 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden brown.
