Here’s a beloved and comforting Hungarian classic — Rakott Tészta 🇭🇺 (Hungarian Baked Dessert Noodles) — also known as Túrós Tészta édesen when made sweet! 🍜🍰
This old-fashioned dessert is made with noodles, sweet cottage cheese, sour cream, and a touch of lemon and vanilla. It’s creamy, soft, and lightly golden on top — a true Hungarian grandma-style treat. 💛
