Turn out onto floured surface; knead till smooth and elastic, 5 to 8 minutes, kneading in remaining 1/4 to 1/2 cup flour. Place in lightly greased bowl, turning once to grease surface. Cover and let rise in warm place till double, about two hours.

Punch down; divide dough in half. Cover; let rest 10 minutes. Shape each half into 12 balls. Place 3 inches apart on greased baking sheets. Flatten each to 30-inch diameter. Cover; let rise till double, about 1 hour. Make depression in center of each; fill with Prune Filling. Bake in 375 degree oven 10 to 12 minutes. Makes 24.
