Pashka is a cheesecake-like dessert or breakfast food that is usually eaten with thick-crusted bread (but I like it plain too). Though no cooking is needed, it does chill overnight. My bestemor has made this for me since I was a child and I have always loved it!
Ingredients
- 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
- 1 (8 ounce) container cottage cheese
- 1 (8 ounce) container sour cream
- ¼ cup butter, melted

- ½ cup currants

Step 2
Gradually fold in sugar, almonds, currants, vanilla, and lemon extract.
Step 3
Transfer the mixture to a shallow, medium-sized dish. Cover with a cloth and chill in the refrigerator, 8 hours or overnight.
