Hi Mel192! Thanks for your feedback and glad to hear you loved the pastry! You're right there is a whole lot of sugar in the filling but that's how the Hungarians like it - ultra sweet! hehe You can definitely cut back the sugar and/or honey and it will still taste amazing. This recipe has been adapated from a traditional one so didn't want to alter the sugar amount.
Pastry is great. Way too much sugar in the filling. Next time will just try with the honey and leave the sugar out.
