Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 240 ml Vanilla ice cream (full fat)
- 360 g All-purpose flour
- 120 g Unsalted butter (softened)
- 120 ml Fruit jam (strawberry, apricot, or your choice)
- 30 g Powdered sugar (for dusting)
- 1 g Salt
Instructions
1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened vanilla ice cream and flour. Add a pinch of salt to enhance the flavor.
2. Stir the mixture until it forms a soft, pliable dough. If it feels sticky, add a tablespoon of flour at a time until the desired consistency is reached.
3. Flatten the dough into a disc, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
4. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
5. Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the chilled dough to about ¼ inch (6 mm) thickness.
6. Use a 2-inch (5 cm) round cookie cutter to cut out circles from the dough.
7. Place the dough circles onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch (2.5 cm) between each.
8. Spoon a small dollop (about 1 teaspoon) of your chosen fruit jam into the center of each circle.
9. Fold the edges of the dough slightly over the jam to create a crescent shape, pinching lightly to secure.
10. Bake in the preheated oven for 13-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
11. Remove from the oven and allow the kolachy to cool on a wire rack for about 10 minutes.
12. Once cooled, dust generously with powdered sugar before serving.
13. Enjoy your Ice Cream Kolachy as a treat with coffee, tea, or as a dessert!
