Sernik

Twaróg does the heavy lifting here, with sugar rounding it out. A Polish snack that takes 90 minutes, start to finish. Each serving lands at 253 calories with 4g of protein, so it eats like a much heavier meal. Naturally vegetarian, it scales cleanly if you are cooking for more than one.

Ingredients

• 2 lb Twaróg
• 1 cup Sugar
• 5 Eggs
• 1/2 cup Butter
• 1/3 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 tsp Vanilla
• 1/2 cup Raisins
• 1/4 cup Powdered sugar

Steps

1. Grind the twaróg twice through a fine plate — silky cheese makes silky sernik.
2. Beat with sugar, softened butter, yolks, flour, and vanilla until completely smooth.
3. Whip the whites to soft peaks and fold in gently for a light, lofty crumb.
4. Fold in the raisins; pour into a buttered springform.
5. Bake at 325 degrees 60 minutes until set with a slight wobble in the center.
6. Cool in the turned-off oven with the door ajar to prevent cracking; dust with powdered sugar.
