Sour Cream Pie "Zebra"

80 minutes

Sour cream pie 'Zebra' is an exquisite combination of airy tenderness and rich chocolate flavor. Its characteristic striped pattern makes it not only delicious but also visually striking. The recipe for this pie originates in Europe, where classic baking with contrasting layers has always been popular. The secret to its preparation is the proper alternation of two types of dough: light vanilla and dark cocoa. As a result, you get a dessert with a soft texture, rich creamy taste, and subtle cocoa aroma. It is perfect for cozy family tea times, festive gatherings, or simply to treat yourself to something special. It can be served as a standalone dessert or with light cream, berries, or a scoop of ice cream.
