About
My family is Czech and has a kolache recipe that has been passed down for generations. This is not it, but it's still good; one difference is that we don't butter the dough in step 5. My great grandmother would mix flour, sugar and a touch of cream into store-bought jam or poppy seed filling and would use butter instead of shortening.
