Yesss! 😍🇭🇺 You picked a true Hungarian sweet treat: Túrófánk — cottage cheese donuts. These are light, fluffy, and just melt in your mouth, thanks to the creamy túró (Hungarian-style farmer’s cheese, similar to dry curd cottage cheese or ricotta). They’re usually dusted with powdered sugar and sometimes served with jam — the kind of dessert that disappears faster than you can fry them! 🍩✨
