When I was growing up we would occasionally get a butter kuchen from
the bakery down the street. They were the best things in the world.
The dough was a basic sweet dough and the topping was this wonderful
buttery sweet syrupy goo. I've got the dough part down but I've never
been able to reproduce the topping. I've tried two recipes so far.
The first one was to eggy and the filling set up to much. The filling
is suppose to be runny. The second one called for oil instead of
butter and it was a complete disaster. I don't often throw out sweet
goods but in this case I made the exception. Does anyone have a
recipe for a butter kuchen like I've described?

Thanks
