Made the recipe this weekend and they were a big hit. I didn't roll them - just put them on the cookie sheet - about a tablespoon and a half and put the filling in the middle. They puffed up and after they cooled I made a powdered sugar frosting and drizzled it on them. I will make them again! Thanks for the recipe.

This is a delicious recipe for Kolaches. My family and guests raved over them and many had 2nd and 3rds.

These were great!!They are like the ones I get at the kolache shop in Houston,Tx. I did these like they do there. I took the dough and spread it out all most square with some flour because the dough is rather sticky and just cut squares with a pizza cutter. For the filling I used comstock pie filling and added the strudsel topping. They were wonderful and my husband raved about them.

These were wonderful! I am too from Iowa and have very strong "Viking" roots. My entire family history comes from Norway and a little from Denmark.

I was very disappointed with this recipe. A friend used to bring in kolaches to work, but never shared her "secret recipe." So I've been searching for a comparable one. This one isn't it. The dough was not light and fluffy and the first batch burned after 12 minutes. I'll keep looking.

These are the best kolaches ever!!! I put apple pie filling in them, and powdered sugar frosting on the top of them, and they tasted exactly like something you could get at a resteraunt!!

This is a good Kolace recipe but the original ones czechs make -the dough is rolled and and they look like little pigs in a blanket. A lot of Central Texans do not pronounce them right but I am so glad they keep the czech pastries, food and culture alive. This recipe I really like because it is easier than all the rolling.

They tasted great but I wasn't prepared for how large they would get while baking. I had to go back and make the holes larger in the second batch because the fruit was bubbling over. None the less, they tasted great!

This was OK. I was not as crazy about it as others have been. Followed recipe but felt the bread was too "bready", maybe not soft enough for kolaches. I frze some of them and they do freeze well.

Just like my grandma used to make! I was trying to find her recipe but was unable to find it since she passed away. Thank you for this recipe. It has brought many happy memories to my family! I used apple, almond, mixed nut, and cherry fillings and then topped it with a powdered sugar icing. Very very good!

These turned out great! I made them with peach, blueberry, and apricot preserves. The dough was a little sticky, but a bit of flour on my hands fixed this. They were so delicious! Great recipe.

Awesome kolache recipe...seems like everyone who lives in my area thinks that a kolache is a sausage link wrapped in a bisquit.....do not use anything except for a metal pan...i used glass and a baking stone and it took forever to cook on there....the metal worked the best...if u use the metal pan only bake it for 12 min. otherwise they will burn

Good basic recipe! I substituted butter for the shortening and used lemon and apple pie fillings. I did not flatten them out prior to baking as I wanted a deep "well" for the fillings. They did puff up quite a bit in the oven!

I made these for my sons Czech Republic project at school. They had a nice taste and texture. Not too sweet. I had to add extra flour though to form a ball. I have never had these so I was surprised how big they were. I made exactly what the recipe called for and some where close to 3 inches wide. Wow!

Fabulous! This recipe is simple, easy, and not too time consuming, other than waiting for the buns to raise. My niece (age 4) ate so many of these at Christmas, I thought she would burst! I used apricot, raspberry, and poppy seed fillings. This is a keeper recipe!!

This recipe rates up there with the best of kolaches. Something I especially like about this one is the suggestion of leaving the kolache flat with a center indention filled with preserves. They are beautiful served on a tray this way, and you can see what you are getting. My personal preferences are strawberry, apricot, & blackberry, but the choices are limitless! Ummmmm, good!

Kolaces (or Kolaches) are big where I live in Central Texas, due to the large Czech population... and they're one of the many reasons we native Texans are glad so many Czechs call Texas home! Kolaces are perfect for any occasion - my favorite filling is sweet cream cheese - to DIE for. This is a great basic recipe!
