Masurian quark dessert


Explanation:
"Glumse" is another word for "quark" - see http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quark_(Milchprodukt) - so I suppose literally "Masurian quark dessert"

agree  Joel Schaefer: This sounds the most appetizing, and most English speakers probably don't know what quark is.
2 hrs
  -> Thanks Joel!
disagree  Nicole Schnell: Sorry, but Hattie's recipe doesn't say anything about baking and there is no biscuit or pastry involved.
2 hrs
  -> Nicole - look up the recipe for any new york cheesecake or English cheesecake - they are not baked either!
