Curd cheesecake, also known as “tvorozhnik” in Eastern European cuisine, is a creamy, dense dessert made primarily from curd cheese, eggs, sugar, and flour or semolina. Popular in Russian, Ukrainian, and Polish kitchens, this treat has a slightly tangy flavor due to the curd cheese, which is similar to ricotta or farmer’s cheese. It often includes vanilla, lemon zest, or raisins for added flavor. Nutritionally, curd cheesecake is a source of protein and calcium from the curd cheese, as well as essential vitamins like B12. However, it can also be high in sugar and saturated fat depending on the recipe. For a lighter version, reduced-fat curd cheese and less sugar can be used. Its rich and satisfying texture makes it a beloved dessert in its regions of origin and a delightful treat for those who prefer less-sweet options.
