Chocolate Yeast Buns with Cheesecake Filling - Drożdżówki z Serem


Drożdżówki are a popular type of Polish yeast pastry, often enjoyed as a sweet snack or breakfast item. These pastries are made from a rich, sweet yeast dough and typically filled with various ingredients such as fruit preserves, sweet cheese (such as quark), poppy seeds, or a crumble topping. They are often shaped into spirals, buns, or other decorative forms and baked until golden brown. Drożdżówki are beloved for their soft, fluffy texture and delightful fillings, making them a staple in Polish bakeries and homes.
