Instructions: I suspect there are several variations on this. My "Slovak American"

cookbook is missing, by my Balkan one gives:

Knead a smooth dough - using enough cream to be smooth. Refrigerate for 1 hour to become quite cold.

To make filling - boil milk, sugar, vanila sugar, and flower, stiring constantly, until slightly thickened. Mix with ground nuts and rum

Roll out cold dough very thin and cut into 3-inch squares. Place 1 teaspoon of the filling on each square and fold like an envelope.

Place on a well-greased and floured pan and bake in 325 oven for 30 to 40 minutes.

Makes 35 - 40 envelopes.

The Czech name would be something like "kolachi".
