Kossuth Kifli

Kossuth kifli (Kossuth crescent) is named after Lajos Kossuth (1802-1894), statesman, who tried to gain back the indepence of Hungary from the Habsburg Empire. His plan failed, and he emigrated from Hungary, but he is considered as a national hero.
Kossuth kifli is a crescent formed cake with chopped walnuts. This recipe, differently from the previous recipes, is very simple and fast.


Aranygaluska


Aranygaluska is a traditional Hungarian dessert. It is considered more as a second course after a rich soup such as the goulash soup. Aranygaluska is made from sweet yeast dough balls sprinkled with walnut and butter and served with custard.
This recipe is from my grandmother who learned it from her mother. She makes aranygaluska a lot of time for us and we always eat all of it. This is a type of those irrestible desserts that are hard to stop eating.
