I thought this would be fun, so many of us have been here YEARS, it's time we swapped some recipes 
I love learning about cooking and family heritage, so I'll go first and REALLY HOPE others join in.....
Our Dad was first generation in the United States (his parents are from Hungry) Our Mom's heritage is German; Scot; and a bit English
Here is one of my favorite recipes for Slovak kolache (nut roll)
Hungarian (Slovak) Nut Roll
Recipe Makes 4 Rolls (5 if made smaller)
DOUGH
In a bowl mix together the following dry ingredients:
(7) cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
(2) teaspoons baking powder
Mix together well and set aside.
In a bowl mix the following wet ingredients:
(6) eggs (beat up really well)
1 lb. of butter (softened)
(1) cup sugar
Mix the above all together and then add:
(1) cup warmed milk
(1) cake yeast (when milk is warm crumble into milk and stir)
Add milk and yeast mixture to the wet mixture above. **do not delay in pouring into wet bowl**
Once well mixed start adding the dry ingredients, you may get to the point where you knead with your hands.
Place dough in bowl, place tea towel over and place somewhere warm to rise.
NUT FILLING
1.5 sticks butter (soft)
(1) cup sugar
Add brown sugar to taste (maybe a half cup)
ADD MILK UNTIL it gets moist and somewhat creamy
Add ground nuts (probably 3 cups)
****The mixture MUST be spreadable so donāt add too many ground nuts. If too dry add more milk
Bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes. WATCH THEM will get brown on top.
**To Freeze wrap in plastic wrap then in foil. Thaw at room temp and enjoy!
