Tartelette and Peabody are calling food bloggers to make doughnuts. A doughnut, or donut, is a sweet, deep-fried piece of dough or batter. For New Year’s Eve we had the Berlin Pancakes , a doughnut filled with jelly. For this event I prepared the Quarkbällchen – in English
Quark balls
Quark (cheese) is a type of fresh cheese of Central European origin. I used it to prepare a quark dough, portioned it with an ice-cream scoop and deep fried it.

We submitted very similar doughnuts this time – I made curd cheese aka quark doughnuts as well:)
These look really good – I have never seen these type of donuts before.
