Zutaten

For the strudel

  • 2 eggs
  • 3 tbsp. sugar
  • 1 cup curd cheese or farmers cheese, cream cheese
  • 2 tbsp. sour cream unsalted, unflavoured
  • 1 organic lemon
  • 3 tbsp. raisins optional

Anleitung

For the strudel

  • Heat up your oven to 360°F (180°C).
  • Mix the eggs, sugar, sour cream, curd cheese and the grated zest of a lemon (and eventually raisins) well together.
  • Take the strudel dough out of the packaging and place the two layers directly on top of each other on baking paper.
  • Spread the curd cheese filling on the dough, not too close to the edges.
  • Carefully roll up with the help of the baking paper. Fold in the edges.
  • Put the strudel with the baking paper into a loaf pan.
    Brush the top of the strudel with neutral oil or melted butter.
    Bake at 360°F (180°C) for about 30 minutes in the oven.

Serve

  • Sprinkle the strudel with icing sugar and serve with warm vanilla sauce.

Notizen

Vanilla Sauce: You can make Vanilla Sauce with storebought vanilla pudding or custard powder, but by using about 50% more milk than the packaging says. (So if you would make a pudding with 500ml/2 cups of milk, you would use about 750ml/3 cups instead). But if you like it less liquid, you can also just make normal pudding or custard.
