Kolach (cake)
A kolach (also spelled kolache, kolace or kolacky , from the Czech and Slovak plural koláče, sg. koláč, diminutive koláčky, meaning "cake/pie") is a type of sweet pastry that holds a portion of fruit surrounded by puffy dough. It is made from yeast dough and common flavors include Quark, a dairy product, ''tvaroh'' spread, fruit jam and poppy seeds mixed with powidl (''povidla''). Originating as a semisweet pastry from Central Europe, they have also become popular in parts of the United States, particularly in the state of Texas. The name originates from the Czech (Bohemian), and originally Old Slavonic word meaning "circle", "wheel". In some parts of the US, klobásník, which contains sausage or other meat, is also called kolach because the same dough is used. Unlike kolache, which came to the United States with Czech immigrants, ''klobásníky'' were first made by Czechs who settled in Texas. In contrast, Czech ''koláč'' is always sweet. Kolaches are often asso ...
