A **Hungarian Tart (Rácsos linzer)**đź‡đź‡ş is a traditional Hungarian pastry that’s buttery, crumbly, and filled with sweet jam, usually apricot, plum, or raspberry. It’s very similar to a linzer tart, with a lattice top and a melt-in-your-mouth texture that makes it a favorite at family gatherings and holidays.
