Hungarian Strawberry Pastry Bars Recipes

AUTHENTIC HUNGARIAN PASTRIES

Authentic Hungarian Pastries image

These are amazing! You would not believe that there are only 3 ingredients in the dough. My Great-Grandma used to make these every Sunday. The dough has a delicate cheese taste and the filling is nice and tart. They also have a BEAUTIFUL presentation! I've never paid attention to how many cookies it makes or how much time it takes so that is a guess. I know it looks like a lot of steps, but it is not hard to do.

Time 1h

Yield 20 pinwheels

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

16 ounces cream cheese, softened (do not use lite or fat free)
1 cup butter, softened (no substitutions)
2 cups flour
1 lb dried apricot
1 cup sugar
water
1/2 cup powdered sugar

Steps:

Prepare the fruit filling by putting the apricots in a saucepan. Add water just to cover.Cook until soft, being very careful not to let it burn. You may have to add more water to prevent this.
When fruit is soft, add the sugar and cook until thick. When thickened, remove from heat and puree in a food processor. Let cool slightly, then put into a freezer bag. When you are ready to use the filling just snip off the corner of the bag. (You may have extra filling left over at the end- it can be frozen for the next time).
Prepare pastry: Mix the dough ingredients together with a pastry blender. Roll out onto parchment paper or a lightly floured board to about 1/4" thick rectangle.
Using a sharp knife (or a pie crust wheel), cut the dough into 3" X 3" squares.
With a sharp knife, cut the dough diagonally from each corner to within 1/2-inch of center of each square.
Put about 1 teaspoons of the filling in the center of each square.
Fold every other corner of the square to the center to form a pinwheel shape, overlapping the dough at the center and pushing down gently to seal in center.
Transfer cookies to a lightly greased cookie sheet. (They dont really expand so you dont have to worry about leaving a lot of space in-between.).
Bake at 350 for 20 minutes on a lightly greased cookie sheet. Do not let get brown or burn.
Dust with powdered sugar when cooled.

This was my Mother's recipe. She always made these for Christmas. I make them several times a year. You may use any flavor of jam, but I think the raspberry is delicious. One reviewer asked me about the egg whites. I always beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. My mother made it the same way.

THE 22 TRADITIONAL HUNGARIAN PASTRIES AND CAKES YOU SHOULD KNOW

From offbeatbudapest.com
Estimated Reading Time 9 mins

Pogácsa: These soft snacks are among the most traditional — dating back to medieval Hungary — and widespread across the country. They come in different sizes and varieties: you'll find pogácsa topped with melted cheese, dotted with pork cracklings (töpörtyűs), and filled with cottage cheese (túrós).
Strudel (rétes): Strudels evolved from the baklava, which Hungarians took from Ottoman Turkey when it ruled the country in the 16-17th centuries.
Bejgli: During Christmas, no Hungarian dining table is complete without these sweet rolls filled with finely ground poppy seeds and walnuts. People usually place them on a plate side by side because there's a folk belief that the poppy seeds bring prosperity and the walnuts keep trouble away.
Pozsonyi kifli: This is a variation of the bejgli, above. During the Austro Hungarian Empire, bakers in Bratislava (Pozsony) were so skilled at making of these filled breads that people from as far as Budapest would order deliveries.
Chimney cake (kürtőskalács): Feel free to just tear into this aromatic Transylvanian chimney cake flaunting a caramelized crust and a chewy, soft interior.
