In a large bowl, combine flour, remaining sugar, and salt. Add the softened butter, egg, and the yeast mixture. Mix until a soft dough forms. Knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

Spread the poppy seed and cheese filling evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
