Kolachki
From the kitchen of Grandma Barkwell (maiden name Josephine
Mackzo).  If you ask someone from the Polish-American community of
Binghamton what a Kolachki is, they'll tell you it's a rolled cookie that
contains poppy seed, lekvar, nut or apricot filling.  Nuts seems to be
the most popular.  The other fillings are sold in the baking aisle of
grocery stores.
3/4 c milk
4 c flour
4 egg yolks (save the whites)
1 c butter
1 envelope yeast dissolved in a little bit of warm milk

Cut the butter into the flour.
Add remaining ingredients.
Work until incorporated.
It will be stiff for awhile.
Put in refrigerator for several hours.

Grease cookie sheets.
Roll out small amounts of dough at a time.
Roll to 1/8" thickness.
Cut into 1 1/2" squares.
Spread 1/2 tsp filling over each square.
Roll up & place on cookie sheet.
Bake 15-20 minutes.

Nut filling:
1 1/2 lb ground walnuts
1 c sugar
1 Tbsp butter, melted
4 egg whites
Slowly heat on the stove so the sugar disolves.
If you use too much filling, it will ooze out the ends.
