    Divide dough into 4,5or 6 balls & put back in bowl.I usually make 4,to make 2 nut & 2 poppyseed.Cover until raised,about 1 hr.
  • Step 6
    Roll out on floured bowl into thin rectangle.Spread with filling and roll up like jelly-roll.Place onto greased baking sheet ,cover and let rise 1 1/2 to 2 hrs.Brush rolls with beaten egg (that I forgot to put in recipe) the last 15 min. and pierce rolls with fork.
