Hungarian Kifli Cookies
Hungarian Kifli Cookies
If you haven’t tried kifli cookies, then you are sure in for a treat! I hadn’t had them either until I made this batch but after hearing stories about how incredible these cookies were, I knew I had to give them a shot. This kifli recipe that been passed down through the family for generations and is actually authentic. It was first posted in a Michigan newspaper a few decades back and a copy was passed down to me recently.
Now don’t be intimidated, the recipe is a lot easier than it sounds! What I liked the most was how these kifli cookies had such a light flavor. They weren’t overly sweet and would honestly be wonderful for breakfast too as they are very reminiscent of a pasty! You can make the filling sweeter but I choose to just use about 3/4 tbsp of sugar and I’m glad I went that route. After all of the really sweet cookies recently, these kifli were a welcome
