This delicious and flaky vanilla cake with Romanian cheese is a traditional Romanian delicacy. You can also use ricotta or any other fresh cheese.
I've attempted to make my own strudel dough for placinta cu branza ... to ok results. My mom's was amazing. I think this would be great with apples and cinnamon. 
Apples and cinnamon are always great! I can ask for the recipe for the dough. Or well, my sister-in-law can ask for the recipe. Because I can't speak Romanian haha! :) 
Hi, just a quick comment that the Romanian cheese in this recipe is called "urda", not "branza burduf" :-) Branza burduf is salty, smelly and is always used in savoury recipes.
"Urda" however, mixed with sugar and vanilla or grated lemon rind can be used as filling in pies, crepes etc. It has similar tasted with ricotta but more "concentrated" and is thicker.
I will try this recipe :-)
Hi Ioana, I will check with my sister-in-law about the cheese name. She's Romanian and she brought it from Romania for us and that's the name she told us :)
