      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 ºC. 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.
