Grandma Mary Ponchak's Kolachi........................ Nut, Poppyseed, Lekvar, or Apricot Roll

9 cups All purpose Flour, sifted
1 tsp Salt
2 cups Milk, Scalded
1 cup Crisco
1 cup Sugar
1 lg cake of Yeast
4 Eggs
The Filling:
Mix following together. Finely grounded Walnuts or Poppyseed with sugar and a little milk, or purchase prepared poppyseed, nut, Lekvar(prune), or apricot spread from the store.
Preheat oven as mentioned below.
Sift flour and salt together. Scauld milk in pot, then place Crisco in the milk and let it dissolve and cool. Mix sugar and yeast together and let them stand until yeast ferments and melts into the sugar (apx 30-45 minutes). Mix all ingredients in a large bowl with hands to form into dough. Cover with a white towel or cloth. Set in a warm place away from drafts. Let rise until it is double in bulk, about 2 hours. When not sticky, place on a clean lightly floured table and roll out dough 1/8"-1/4" thick with a rolling pin and into a 12"-15" by __?" rectangle.
Cover the dough rectangle with pollyseed, grounded walnuts, lekvar, or apricot. Roll up as you would a jelly roll. Place nutroll on baking sheet making sure to place end of roll underneath to keep roll sealed. Coat roll with solution of 1 egg and spritz of milk mixture.
Bake in preheated oven to 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes. (Aunt Margie coats rolls after baking with egg/milk solution to give sheen. Some relatives do not since the E. coli scare)
