This beloved Hungarian dessert combines a soft, creamy cottage cheese filling wrapped in golden, flaky pastry. Traditionally made with handmade strudel dough, this easy version uses store-bought phyllo (filo) pastry, making it simple to prepare while keeping that authentic flavor everyone loves!
🍰 Ingredients:
For the filling:
1 lb (450 g) cottage cheese or farmer’s cheese (túró)
3 tbsp sour cream
2 large eggs
½ cup (100 g) sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
Zest of 1 lemon (optional but lovely!)
2 tbsp semolina or breadcrumbs (to absorb excess moisture)
