kohupiimarull

Kohupiimarull is a type of Estonian dessert. It is a rolled cake with a filling made primarily from kohupiim, which is a form of Estonian curd cheese. The cake itself is typically a thin sponge cake, baked until golden brown. Once cooled, it is spread with the kohupiim filling and then carefully rolled into a log shape. The filling is often sweetened and can include ingredients like sugar, vanilla, and sometimes lemon zest for added flavor. Variations exist where fruits, such as berries or stewed apples, are incorporated into the filling. After rolling, the kohupiimarull is usually chilled to allow the filling to set and the cake to become moist. It is often served sliced, showcasing the spiral pattern of cake and filling. This dessert is popular in Estonia for celebrations and as a home-baked treat. Its texture is a combination of the soft, slightly springy cake and the creamy, tangy filling.
