Babovka (Poppy seed tea rings)

Recipe by: Carol Ponec-Nemec

Be the first to review it!

A Czech specialty that is delicious and easy to make. If desired, you can ice or glaze these and top with flaked almonds or other nuts. You can use apricot filling instead of the poppyseed filling. Also, if you don't have the round tins, you can bake the rings on regular baking trays (just be sure to place the seams of the rings are well sealed and placed downward on the trays).

Chocolate Babka

Recipe by: Nina

Reviews(3)

This recipe is the next best thing to a bakery babka! Although babkas are traditionally yeast-risen breads, this one is more similar to a sweet quick bread or cake.

The word 'dobos' means 'like a drum' in Hungarian. However, this cake is named after its creator, Austrian pastry chef Josef Dobos.

Elleasha's famous millionaire Shortbread!!!

I think its very easy, well most of it sure is anyway! The only bit that i really struggled on was the mixing of the ingredients, mixing it into breadcrumbs with your fingers bit i actually found that it was easier with the dough whisks. plus it deduces your mixing time by about 5-8 minutes. from then it gets pretty easy with the rolling and cuttting and everything...!

I made friends with a girl from Ukraine and after helping her find a flat and a job, she wanted to pay me back. I said no but suggested we cook a meal together. This is what we made, it was a great success and now we talk about recipes all the time.

Recipe by: LAURANERIC

This cake was traditionally a birthday cake in my friend's home. Her mother is from Hungary and only has this recipe in her head! Now it will be preserved . . . Note: hazelnuts may be toasted or un-toasted. The skins may be removed or left on.

Recipe by: UniChefUK

Summer is the time when we can forget about tinned fruit and preserves, and can finally enjoy the full, rich flavour of fresh fruits. This is a great fruity, juicy sponge cake made from lots of real apricots with a gentle hint of honey. Fabulous for sweetening up mid-summer tea time!

Julia's Easy Surprise Cake

Recipe by: yoolka

Be the first to review it!

I found a similar recipe on the Polish internet around 5 years ago and I changed it and tweaked it a lot since then. I think I made it at least 20 times. It's very sweet, full of different surprises (seeds, nuts etc.) and everybody loves it. It's also quite filling so it might even last for 3 days - that's if there are no children around! There is a lot of writing but the cake is very quick to make.

Kolaches

Recipe by: Michelle Beard

Reviews(5)

This is a basic recipe for the traditional Czech pastry. They can be made with a variety of fillings, but this one uses your favourite jam. My preference is for a good quality apricot preserve.

Buttery jam filled pastries which have been a tradition for every Polish Christmas Eve I can remember.

Musaka

Recipe by: Lisa

I learned this from my Bulgarian mother in law though it's probably Turkish in origin. The recipe calls for 'chubritsa', a Bulgarian herb that can be difficult to find, so basil can be substituted in its place.

Romanian Apple Cake

Recipe by: Mona

Be the first to review it!

This is a wonderfully simple, yet delicious cake! It is so moist and fresh, it will surely be a favourite with your family, just like it is with mine! The main length of the preparation time is cutting and peeling the apples. A mixture of apples works great, although I usually use Golden Delicious.
