Pampushki with jam

At home in Crimea we always had 12 Lenten dishes for Christmas, of which kutya was obligatory and indispensable. But when I went to Lviv for Christmas, I learned that the second obligatory Christmas dish is pampushki with jelly, which are called pampukhi there. These are oil-fried patties made of yeast dough and filled with thick jam or povidla. I admit, it is very caloric, but also very tasty. The dough in pampushki is very soft and tender. Keep in mind, the thicker the filling, the less the dough will soften, it is ideal to take jam. In general, expand your Christmas menu with pampushki - they are delicious and will please everyone!

Sacher cake

It's getting much colder outside and instantly my body switched from light summer desserts to heavy, hearty cakes. I've been planning to make the famous Viennese cake "Sacher" and just then a jar of apricot jam appeared in the fridge. The cake, because of its dryness and chocolate coating, can keep for a long time - I think it will keep for a week in the fridge.
