My grandmother on my dads side was from Hungarian/Slovak origins. My stepdad Eddo was also Slovak, he has passed but was a wonderful person. He gave me a present many years ago an authentic Slovak cookbook with wonderful recipes from his country. Kolacky as they spell it in the book is a special yeast dough that is made into nut rolls or poppy seed rolls or fruit rolls. It is delicious and made mostly at Christmas time. I have made it many times for the holidays. there are various recipes. Here goes one of them I will post a picture soon Enjoy

8Variation: Cultural Explosion: For my Cream Cheese and Guava filling, take a four ounce package of cream cheese the small one, leave out to soften, then add 1/4 cup powdered sugar and blend in well. The cheese should be very soft to spread easily Spread this cream cheese on the dough, then take guava marmalade (Conchita, Ancel or Goya are brands I buy in the Latin food markets) Guava marmalade comes in a can. Take a large tablespoon and put a few spoonfulls of the marmalade over the cream cheese and spred all over the cream cheese. Then roll jelly roll fashion. Pinch edges or fold under so spread wont come out. Follow the recipe above and bake. Delicious.
