Prunes stuffed with a cottage cheese and nut mixture are a true delight of Ukrainian cuisine. The sweet, rich prunes absorb the aroma of nuts and the softness of cottage cheese, creating a harmonious blend of flavors. This dish has its roots in traditional Ukrainian desserts, where simple ingredients are transformed into exquisite treats. Baked in the oven, prunes acquire a delicate caramel texture, and serving them with whipped sour cream adds extra lightness and airiness. Perfect for a cozy family tea time or festive gathering where you want to enjoy something homemade, warming, and truly delicious.
