My goodness! I can't believe that I haven't rated this recipe yet! This is EXCELLENT, FANTASTIC, SUPERB, SO EASY, and best of all FOOL PROOF! I make this with canned (or fresh) pie filling. I roll the ends and back edge to keep the filling in and only make strips with one side, criss-crossing them as I go. It is so close to puff pastry but without all the turns and work. What more can I say except, DELICIOUS! Thanks for a great recipe!

Incredibly outrageously sweet! I think next time I will try it with the cherry or apple filling instead of the brown sugar filling because it creates a syrupy buttery soup around the kringles and it's quite messy and impossible to contain inside the dough (unless maybe you use a lot less of the filling than it asks for). Great with a glass of cold milk to keep the sweetness down.

I don't know what a kringle is but this was a delicous danish. The dough was easy to work with and I had no problems with the filling leaking. I doubled the recipe and got 3 large pieces. I used apple and cherry pie filling. The finished product was beautiful and looked a like a lot more work then it actually was.

I have the students in my culinary school make this recipe all the time. We usually sell this for a fundraiser during the holidays and it is always a big hit! It is a simple reicpe and we always get three pieces out of it. I have found that it is hard to tranfer to the pan so we use 2 large spatulas at either end and this keeps us from having too many casualties! Hope you enjoy it, Chef Dave

It tasted good, but my husband said it reminded him more of a strudel than a kringle. Had enough dough to make 2: a walnut and one with apple pie filling. The walnut reminded me of baclava and we enjoyed the apple pie filling more, both were a sweet treat.

Soooo good. I initially rolled in (a lot) of flour right on my counter, but could not have possibly moved it to my baking sheet, so I rolled it (and then baked it) right on my silicone baking mat. I only had a little cherry filling leak, but there was no burning, again thanks to the siclione. Drizzled with cream cheese frosting and this was the first to go at our ladies brunch! Can't wait to make again tomorrow for my family!

My family went absolutely crazy for this recipe! They are still talking about it to anyone who will listen. The dough is super simple to make and work with, no problem at all. What I did was to divide the dough in half and put cherry pie filling in one half and the brown sugar/butter/nuts recipe given in the other half (measurng half of the ingredients listed of course). I used pecans instead of walnuts, because that's what I had. Yummo! The only change I would make is that the brown sugar/butter/nuts one had too much butter. I used 1 stick (1/2 cup) and it leaked out everywhere and I ended up pouring at least a 1/4 cup of melted butter off of the pan because the kringle was swimming in it. I would use only half a stick next time. Next time I will also try chocolate chips in one half - yummy!

I made this for Easter dessert and it came out great and none was left for me to take home! All I did was make the dough as directed, divided it in 2, filled each with a 1/2 can cherry pie filling and baked as directed. I'm from Wisconsin and this is very close to the Kringle I remember. It was so easy that I will definitely make in the future! I didn't have too much trouble with it dripping onto the pan. It was fine. Thanks for this tasty recipe

Easy to make to dough! Don't cut into the rolled out dough too far! Just cut a third of the way on each side. I used slivered almonds in the filling instead of walnuts to make a "Bear Claw" pastry. It turned out fine! Try it. You'll be happy that you did! Just save some almonds to sprinkle on top!

Not what I expected at all. I had high hopes for this recipe. I am an experienced baker and have come across much better recipes. This one was difficult to work with. The filling oozed out and burnt on the pan while baking. The dough was not easy to manipulate. Definitely not enough dough for three braids as I had a hard enough time making two out of the dough. Will not make again.

I was afraid that the dough wasn't going to work but it turned out really buttery and flaky. I filled my Kringle with strawberries and sprinkled with raw sugar and egg white before baking. My entire family loved it.

My daughter and I made this for her dad's birthday. We only got two kringles out of the dough. I think it would have been too difficult to work with if we had tried for three. We made one as directed and filled the other with apple pie filling. They were both delicious. There was some oozing of the filling, but we just removed them from the baking sheet right away and they looked great. Great recipe.

I made these in a smaller version for Christmas and everyone raved about them. I used apple jelly (tinted green) and raspberry jam for filling. Looked wonderful and tasted even better.

If I had rated this recipe before eating the end result, I would have given it only 3 or 4 stars. Try as I may, there was no way I was going to get 3 kringles out of the amount of dough the recipe makes. I ended up with 2 and then the cuts were a little too long or something because a lot of the filling seeped out during baking. However, I transferred them immediatly upon removal from the oven to a clean surface so they wouldn't get stuck to the pan. The end result tastes absolutely awesome and in the end, was worth the trouble I had. I will make these again, doubling the amount of dough and making sure that my cuts aren't too long so the filling doesn't leak out. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

My family and co-workers just loved this recipe! They cannot wait for me to make it again. The filling did ooze out while baking, but it did not ruin the kringle, just check on it while its baking to make sure the filling doesn't spill on the oven.
