We used this recipe from Food & Wine Magazine, but instead of cooking a jam filling, we used two different jams - Strawberry Fig Preserves and Satsuma Jelly.
DOUGH
CREAM CHEESE FILLING
STREUSEL TOPPING
EGG WASH
Ingredients.
Make the dough: Whisk 1 cup flour, granulated sugar, and yeast in a large bowl. Add warm milk, and whisk to combine. Set aside until small bubbles begin to appear on the surface, about 5 minutes.
Whisk together melted butter, egg yolks, and salt in a separate bowl.
Stir butter mixture into yeast mixture using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon. Stir in remaining 2 cups of flour, 1 cup at a time.
After the second cup is added and it becomes too difficult to stir, tip the shaggy dough out onto a lightly floured countertop, and begin kneading by hand until smooth and springy, 3 to 4 minutes. The dough should be very tacky and a little greasy, but not sticky. If it does stick to the surface, dust with more flour, using as little as possible.
Transfer dough to a large bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Place bowl in a warm spot until doubled in size, 1 hour to 1 hour and 30 minutes.
Make the streusel topping: Stir together flour, sugar, butter, and salt in a small bowl until crumbly. Set aside to let butter solidify. Before using, stir again to create fine crumbs.
Make the cream cheese filling: Beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, egg yolk, and lemon zest in a large bowl with an electric mixer until smooth, about 1 minute.
Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces (about 2 1/3 ounces each). Roll dough pieces against work surface with cupped hands to make smooth balls. Transfer dough balls to a parchment paper–lined baking sheet, and let rise, covered with a damp towel, until doubled in size, 30 to 45 minutes.
Make the kolaches: Preheat oven to 375°F. Use your fingertips to form 2-inch-wide wells in the center of each dough ball. Whisk egg yolk and milk in a small bowl. Brush outer edges and sides of dough with egg wash.
Spread 1 tablespoon cream cheese filling in each well. Make a smaller well in the center of the cream cheese, and top each with a dollop of your favorite jam. Sprinkle with streusel topping.
Bake in preheated oven until edges are light golden brown, about 20 minutes.
Satsuma Marinated Pork Chops
3-4 pork chops (bone in)
½ chopped onion
½ cup Blackberry Patch Premium Satsuma Syrup
¼ cup olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
½ tsp paprika
¼ tsp ginger
orange slices
rosemary to garnish
Combine the marinade – stir Blackberry Patch Satsuma Syrup, olive oil, salt and pepper, ginger and paprika. Place pork chops in a deep dish and soak in marinade for at least 10 minutes.
Add chopped onion to dry skillet on medium heat and caramelize for 2-3 minutes. Add pork chops to the skillet and the remaining marinade. Cook on medium high for 8-10 minutes, flipping the pork chops while cooking. Coat the pork chops in marinade…it starts to get sticky – this mean you’re almost done. Remove from heat and garnish with fresh rosemary and an orange slice.
Prosciutto Goat Cheese Crostini
1 fresh baguette
1/8 cup olive oil

4 ounces goat cheese at room temperature
Blackberry Patch Satsuma Jelly
Prosciutto, cut in half
Arugula
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Slice baguette into thin slice ad place on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle a little salt. Bake until slightly golden and allow to cool slightly.

Ricotta Cheesecake with Satsuma Glaze
6 oz. gingersnap cookies
1 ¼ cups walnuts
¼ cup sugar
5 tbsp. unsalted butter, melted
For the filling:
8 oz. cream cheese, at room temperature, but into 4 pieces
7 oz. whole-milk ricotta, drained well
Grated zest of one orange
1 cup sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract
4 eggs, separated
2/3 cup heavy cream
1/8 tsp. salt
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
To make the crust, finely chop cookies and walnuts in a food processor and move to a small bowl. Add sugar and melted butter. Mix well until evenly moistened. Transfer to a spring form pan and press into the bottom and up the sides of the pan. Bake until lightly browned – about 15 minutes.
In a blender, combine the cream cheese, ricotta, orange zest, sugar, vanilla, egg yolks, cream and salt. Process until smooth – approximately 1 to 2 minutes. Pour into a large bowl.
In another bowl, using an electric mixer on high speed, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Using a spatula to fold in 1/3 of the egg whites into the cheese mixture. Do this twice again for the second thirds of the mixture. Once well incorporated, pour into fully cooled crust and back for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, increase the oven temperature to 325 and continue to bake until the surface is golden and the edges are firm, but the center still giggles – approximately 30 minutes. Turn off the oven, open the oven door and let the cheesecake cool in the oven for about 3 hours. Refrigerate 12 hours to overnight.
When ready to serve, simply pour Blackberry Patch Satsuma syrup over the top – allowing it to drip over the sides. Add orange zest and serve.
