The Recipe is very simple but is does require some local ingredients..
here it goes...get in the car and from my house drive to the local store that has some great baked goods. pick a box from the shelf. pay at the counter , and drive home.
my personal culinary expertise does not go past coffee or tea.
OH!..I did add powdered sugar to the baked goods.

Congrats on your win! These look a lot like the PA Dutch kiffels my grandma used to make only I think she used to grind up raisins and walnuts for the filling. These look like raspberry jam filled which I prefer. Yes, these are readily available at the grocery store, esp around the holidays.
Drat, drat, drat!! I've been looking for a very good recipe for the cookie part of a kolachy (though my spell checker says that you've spelled it wrong, and suggests oligarchy :)
Now I have to keep looking. :(
But congrats on a beautiful red! I hear that the red and blue ribbon winners have to share the food with the yellow ribbon winner...
Damn I love these. My favorite is apple.
Congrats on the red!
And I think Wendy is mistaken, it's the red and yellow ribbon winners that have to share their food with the blue. Express mail to Hawaii isn't that expensive...just sayin'

There is something about this photo that sets it apart from all the rest by a long shot. The perfect positioning of each element in the photo, the perfect lightig, the angled lighting in the background, the perfect focus of the plate. I dont think this couldve been done any better. This should take 1st easily. Great job!
