I agree with you. :) This is one of my favorite dessert, especially the poppy seed one.. mmmm I could never refuse a slice from this . I know this recipe has its origin in Eastern Europe, I am glad it finally gain popularity in other parts of the world :).My mother is making these every Christmas and Easter and she always send me one roll of each right after she take them out of the oven. Serving them warm is heavenly.
