Polish Kolaczki (Filled Cookies)

A soft rich dough filled with fruit preserves, nuts or poppyseeds. Kołaczki are a traditional favorite in Poland and Central Europe.

In this video, I walk you through making the dough, prepare a nut filling, and talk about other fillings you might use.

We’ll roll out the Kołaczki dough and talk about several options for cutting it into 2-inch squares. I’ll share tips to ensure your cookies stay folded over while baking.

You’ll want to include these for Christmas and your baking for other special occasions. I bake them ahead of time and freeze until the day I need them. Dust them with powdered sugar just before serving.

Ingredients for dough
1 1/2 cups butter (340g), softened
8 ounces cream cheese (225 g), softened
3 cups all-purpose flour (360 g)
1/2 teaspoon salt

Cream the butter and cream cheese. Incorporate the flour and salt. Chill the dough for at least an hour or over night. Roll the dough to 1/4-inch thick and cut into 2-inch squares. Put 1/2-1 teaspoon of your favorite filling to the center. Lift up two opposing corners, pinch them together with a dab of water. Fold the point to one side. Bake at 350 F (180 C). Cool, dust with powdered sugar.

Nut filling Ingredients
8 ounces walnuts (225g)
1 cup sugar (200 g)
1 egg white
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
Add a few drops of water (if needed)

Finely chop the walnuts with a knife or steel blade in a food processor. Add the sugar, egg white, and extracts. If you mixture is too dry (not coming together) add a few drops of water. Use for Kołaczki or other recipes.

You’ll find koŁaczki and a different filling recipe on my website at

2 tablespoons lemon juice

1 1/2 teaspoons lemon zest
4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

In a large bowl, cream together the butter, sugar, and cream cheese until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the lemon juice and lemon zest. Combine the flour and baking powder; stir into the cream cheese mixture until just combined. Cover, and chill until firm, about 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Roll tablespoonfuls of dough into balls, and place them 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Using your finger, make an indention in the center of each ball, and fill with 1/2 teaspoon of apricot preserves.
