Austrian Apricot Dumplings: Marllenknoodle

On the phone the other day to Francisco I told him about my apricot tree. He told me about this really good use for them.

Apparently this is pretty common in Austria. They take a apricot and remove the pit. They replace the pit with a sugar cube. A potato dumpling with homemade cottage cheesse, is made and wrapped around the apricots. The dumplings are boiled and then they are rolled in a sweet crumb topping. The sauce they are served with is a sour cream brown sugar and lemon combination.

It must be one fine desert. The sugar cube turns the apricot center into a jam consistency and whole works is one fine taste combination.

I found a great recipe on the web.. of course.

Have a great day..
