Step: 2 Melt Butter In The Microwave

Optional: dip the other side of the dough too for an extra buttery finished Kolache. This makes these mini pastries extra delicious.
In the meantime, cut 2 tablespoons of butter for the crumb topping.
Also, open your pie filling. I always use Solo brand pie and pastry filling and every flavor is delicious. However, my favorite flavors are raspberry and almond which I'm using for this simple dessert recipe.
