Virov'tički krumpir kolač

Virov’tički krumpir kolač is a sweet cake originating from the town of Virovitica. What differentiates this cake from a plethora of other Croatian cakes are its key ingredients – potatoes. Apart from potatoes, the cake is made with flour, lard, sugar, eggs, salt, cinnamon, ground cloves, lemon zest, and homemade fruit jam. After the dough has been prepared, it is brushed with fruit jam, covered with the rest of dough, then baked in the oven until golden brown. Before serving, this tasty cake is traditionally sprinkled with powdered sugar and cut into squares.
