Quarkkeulchen is one of my favorite desserts and I learned how to make this from my childhood friend who came from Germany some months ago. This friend of mine kept craving this delicious delicacy until we both decided to make it finally and I loved it so much that we made and ate it often. This dessert is served as a sweet snack or as part of a light meal. These pancakes are typically enjoyed warm, straight from the frying pan, when they’re crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Traditionally, they are served during various occasions, including festive seasons like Christmas markets in Germany, where they are a popular treat. Quarkkeulchen can also be enjoyed throughout the year, either as a comforting dessert after a meal or as a delicious snack during the day. In other words, you can make and enjoy it at your own convenience.
