Number Of Ingredients 23

SWEET DOUGH:
2 cups warm water
2 (.25-ounce) packages active dry yeast
1/2 cup milk
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup margarine, softened
2 eggs
2 teaspoons salt
8 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup shortening
FILLING:
1 pound ground beef
1 pound German sausage-casings removed
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons lemon pepper
2 tablespoons prepared mustard
1 head cabbage, shredded (not diced or chopped!)
1 cup water
1/2 cup melted butter

Steps:

  • Dough: In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes. Mix in milk, sugar, margarine, eggs, salt, baking powder, and 1/2 of the flour. Beat until smooth; add shortening and remaining flour until dough pulls together. Place in oiled bowl. Cover and let rise for 1 hour. Filling: In a large skillet, brown hamburger and sausage together. Drain, saving drippings in the skillet, and set aside. Add the 2 tablespoons olive oil. Saute onion, garlic, salt, lemon pepper, and mustard for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the cup of water, cabbage, and meat mixture. Simmer 30 minutes. Drain any excess fluid. Cool until lukewarm-about the same time it takes the dough to rise. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat a cookie sheet with non-stick spray. Punch down dough and divide (20 pieces for appetizers; 10 pieces for entrees). Roll each piece of dough into a 1/8-1/4-inch thick square on a lightly floured surface and add filling (2 to 3 tablespoons for appetizers; 4 to 5 tablespoons for entrees). Fold corners to the center and pinch to seal edges. Place on prepared cookie sheet with pinched edges down. Let rise for 1 hour. If desired, brush dough with melted butter or egg wash (1 egg white with 2 tablespoons water). Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Brush with butter (if not already done) and serve warm.

These were easy to make and so good! I used ground turkey instead of beef and they were still very flavorful. I will definitely be making these again.

I've been making these for years and they are always a crowd-pleaser. I usually add a little bit of shredded cheddar cheese to the filling and they are even better.
