Máglyarakás is a classic, traditional Hungarian dessert, the recipe passed down from generation to generation.
I remember eating this heavenly creamy, fluffy, fruity dessert at my grandparents’, at family gatherings and celebrations. It’s a special treat and so, so filling; just as I think about it I can almost smell that delicious sweet fragrance of it.
Now the big secret of its success: Creamy warm vanilla sauce, soft and delicious bread layer with apricot jam, sweet and sour layer of apples, and a fluffy, slightly crunchy layer of meringue mixed with strawberry jam.
