    Title: Vatrushka
    Categories: Russian, Pastry, Cheese
    Yield: 6 Servings

    2 1/2 c Flour
    30 g Yeast
    2 tb Butter
    1 Egg
    3 1/2 oz Milk (short half-cup)
    2 tb Water
    1 ts Sugar
    1 Egg yolk
    1 ts Butter

    MMMMM------------------------CURD FILLING-----------------------------
    500 g Curd
    1 Egg
    3 ts Sugar
    Salt

    Dissolve yeast in lukewarm water. Stir in milk and 1/2
    cup of flour. Leave in a warm place for about 15 minutes.

    Gradually add other ingredients. Knead the dough well
    until elastic & smooth. Let it rest (while preparing the
    filling). Cream all the filling ingredients together.

    On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough 0.5 cm
    thick. Cut out circles about 12 cm in diameter.

    Put 1 tablespoon of curd filling on each dough circle.
    Fold the ends to form vatrushki so that the filling in
    the middle can still be seen.

    Line a baking sheet with a parchment baking paper and
    sprinkle with water. Place ready vatrushki on the baking
    sheet and let rest for about 10-15 minutes. Pierce some
    holes in the middle of vatrushki with a fork.

    Mix egg yolk with butter and brush vatrushki.

    Set oven @ 180-200 ÂșC. Bake vatrushki for about 15-25
    minutes (depending on how big they are). Make sure
    vatrushki don't get too brown on the top. The bottom
    should be well done.

    Take vatrushki out of the oven, place on a wooden
    cutting board, and cover with a dish towel and let rest
    for about 10-15 minutes.
