Walnut schnecken



I found recipe for schnecken in "How to be a domestic goddess" by Nigella Lawson. I have changed ingredients for filling. I love eat schnecken for the evening snack with hot chocolate.

"Ewunia Torte" (Torte with chocolate, halva and meringue filling)




This is expensive and hard cake to make. You will need to be patient and reserve half a day in kitchen. But trust me...taste of this torte is worth every money!

My best Summer dinner! There is nothing better than fresh pierogi with blueberries. Sweet temptation!
