Mum has brought me some good quality cheese for sernik, when she visited us in May. I froze it and only took it out last night thinking- sernik time. It was quite a tube, so I ended up making a large one to take to work tomorrow and 4 little ones for now, with wine. 🙂

The pastry base was Mum’s recipe, 100 g of plain flour, same amount of butter, 2 tbsp of icing sugar, 2 egg yolks, a tea spoon of baking powder and a good amount of cocoa powder. Blind baked was then filled with the mixture that was supposed to be as thick as good cream, Mum says.

In went the whole tub of sernik cheese, about half a glass of icing sugar, a teaspoon of vanilla paste, a dry budyn, 2 egg yolks, 1 egg, less than half a glass of plain sunflower oil. It was thick enough not to add any milk, although Mum says, about half a glass. All this well blitzed, poured into the ready trays and baked off for about 50 mins in 180 degrees.

When cooled and set I decorated it  a bit with some melted chocolate and butter mixture, just to make it a bit more pretty.
