My wrong, it’s called “Csúsztatott Palacsinta”. The pancakes are thick like American pancakes, but much lighter because of the folded in whipped egg whites. The filling would most likely be a simple mix of ground walnuts, sugar and rum.

Zsofi – rakott gundel palacsinta?

toadberry – Hm! Not according to my grandmother. Does it perhaps vary by region in the country? She grew up in Tarpa.

Rakott palacsinta is actually made with thicker pancakes that are not flipped, except the last one that goes on top.

oh yes, rakott palacsinta, I haven’t had it since years. actually, with the walnut filling and the chocolate sauce , you could call it a “layered Gundel palacsinta”. You know, we also make a dish called “rakott teszta”, which translates basicly like layered pasta: simply cooked pasta (e.g. tagliatelle)whith jam, poppyseed, and walnut between the layers. Ask your grandma, I’m sure she knows it

Linda – Sure is.

Rosa – I lovelovelove the filling. I have all sorts of ideas on how else to use it.

Barbara – I didn’t specify because it didn’t occur to me as important. Whatever’s easier for you. I found it easier to cook all the crepes, then layer them, just because of the timing.

Q- do you cool all of the crepes before layering or fill as they come off the pan? (is that there somewhere and I missed it?)

OMG, that looks gorgeously scrumptious! Wow, with that filling and sauce, it must be a killer dessert!

Cheers,
