Pashka Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Good Times, Good Food. (Pashka Recipe). Pashka is a cheese cake-like dessert or breakfast food that is usually eaten with thick-crusted breads, but I like it plain, too. Though no cooking is needed, it does chill over night. My Bestemor has made this for me since I was a child and I have always loved it!
