It really looks like something between mpougatsa and galaktompoureko! Mpougatsa would have powder sugar and cinnamon on top. There’s a cheese pie with a similar style of messy/less structured use of the phyllo called patsabouropita. It’s such a weird special warm feeling to hear Greek words used as is, when in the past I felt like I had to find a counterpart in English. Much love from greece!
It reminded me of something my mom makes. If you search the web for "σουλτάνα γλυκό" you'll see this "crinkle cake" appears to be a variation of that recipe.
My earliest memory of my paternal grandmother is watching her stretch an enormous sheet of pastry dough for apple strudel over her kitchen table like a tablecloth. The patience! RIP, Grandma.
I think it would be great if you made the sugar syrup with rose or orange flower water to add another layer of flavor. A sprinkle of pistachios on top would be great too and pay homage to baklava.
Oh Emmy, you, your channel and especially the audience you’ve cultivated are SO REFRESHING!! I just love watching you, being inspired by you but more than anything else I love reading through your comments and having my faith continuously renewed in humanity :) It’s so rare to find any nastiness over on your channel! I so deeply appreciate how fantastically lighthearted AND educational this little world you’ve created is 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hi Amy! Big fan and Greek in heritage here. This recipe resembles a lot of desserts we make in Greece and I think you would love it with some cinnamon too! We either dust some on top of such desserts or add a couple of sticks in the syrup while boiling. :)
@@SweetHopeCookies They are sold in every bakery in Greece and people have them for breakfast! The savoury ones are delicious too especially the ones with spinach and feta cheese :)
The syrup formula is 2:1 sugar to water. Once it starts boiling, you add few drops of fresh lemon juice. Done. It lives forever in the fridge. If u don’t follow this step the syrup will caramelize.
There is simple syrup 1:1 and rich simple syrup 2:1. Rich simple syrup is used a lot in cocktails. Adding lemon juice to it makes invert syrup like Lyle's Golden Syrup.
For many years I helped with the baking for our church’s Greek Festival. We made a syrup to pour over the desserts (baklava, galaktoboureko, etc). In addition to sugar and water we include cinnamon, and honey. We finish with some Grand Marnier. I learned it from one of the Yia Yia who owned a local restaurant and there was no written recipe for it. It was all by taste! I bet this cake would be delicious with that syrup!
This looks yummy! When I make simple syrup for my Turkish desserts I always put 1 clove in the syrup sometimes I put a teaspoon of lemon juice. But the choice gives a light flavor that most people can't quite place. Super yummy.
I'm greek and this does indeed look like a quick/lazy version of galaktobureko. Based on that resemblance, I'd tweak it by adding a little bit of orange zest between the crinkles and replacing part of the syrup (like, half of it) with honey - especially if I could get my hands on some good thyme honey, which has a very distinctive smell. Also, topping the whole thing off with cinammon sounds like a good idea. BTW if you liked this, you could also give galatopita (aka greek custard pie) a chance, which is also a relatively easy recipe that resembles galaktobureko.
*GALAKTOBOUREKO* ...... YES! Make that next, please! Actually, I like the one made with finely-shredded phyllo.... called 'kataifi' or 'kadaifi'. So good.....
I wonder how this would be with a layer of sweetened cream cheese with a little vanilla added spear thinly on each sheet of phyllo dough before you accordion it-or maybe a less messy version, a layer of the cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, heavy cream and eggs whipped together and poured over instead of the custard. I could even see it topped with fresh strawberries and lightly sweetened fresh whipped cream! Seems versatile, would love to see different trial recipes using this as the base!
It makes my heart so happy that you always do the research to find out what these dishes are based on or what cultural dishes they resemble. This is why I love your channel and I’ve been watching you for so long. You restore my faith in people on social media.
That sounds really good Emmy! I would like to see a trade by you with maybe a little rosewater and sugar syrup and then just the ever so tiny bit of honey drizzled over the top instead
We have been making these for ever without the sugar syrup. It's an easy form of bougatsa. We dust it with icing/ powdered sugar when baked. Delicious 😋
When you added the custard, sprinkle the top with slivered almonds or chopped hazelnuts and dried fruit. Also, instead of water, make your sugar syrup with a nice sparkling wine, a nutty liqueur like amaretto. Dust with powdered sugar.
I knew there had to be a tiktok trend like this! I was trying to make Spanakopita the other day, and I couldn't find Phyllo dough in any of my local grocery locations!
Have you ever tried homemade phyllo? It's not nearly as thin & crackly as the store bought but it's infinitely more delicious! It's kind of like a cross between that kind of phyllo, crispy chewy pita bread & a little bit like puff pastry. IDK that's the best comparison but it's as close as anything I can think of!! It's super simple to make but a good bit of work to roll out & stretch thin. It's best if you have a super long thin rolling pin & a couple/few extra hands lol. It's so so worth the time & effort if you ever want to try it. (ESP on spanakopita!!)
Perfect timing for me to eat dinner and watch Emmy! Yay!😄❤ Also since you talked about it, have you made baklava on the channel before? I'd love to see you make it!
Another yummy video, Emmy. Thanks. Your mention of baklava, followed by the mention of custard, reminded me of a recipe I found in a newspaper and tried only once: baklava-topped cheesecake. You should check it out and give it a try. Like you, I used store-bought Philo dough, but I made the cheesecake by scratch.
I like baklava, but I believe I'm going to love this!!😊 I'm going to make it tomorrow! My grandkids are in for a treat!! Thanks for another great recipe!! Keep up the good work!! Hope you have a great day!
I wonder how this would be with lemon flavoring or lemon zest in it? It reminds me of this cake that's sold in my local grocery store called Ooie Gooie Butter cake!!! Yummmmm!!!!!
Phyllo dough is very necessary for delicious crinkly cake it looks like paper towels super yes gonna cook breaded paper in oven my favorite vanilla paste 😄❤ Queen Emmy perfect!!!!
My aunt used to make something like this but instead of the simple syrup with sugar she would use equal parts honey and water and reduce that back to a syrupy viscosity it was soo good
I like your shirts and jacket with the 70's look. It reminds me of my childhood. I am glad I grew up and graduated half way through the 80's. No cells, no gaming (except at the arcade), no comodity school lunches (healthy freshly made and cooked), no cameras everywhere, and people felt hopeful for a great future. Then evil took over. Love your videos.
It looks like a sweet Horefti pita (Χορευτή) called like that because when you apply the layer of dough on the pie you move it back and forth to crinkle it and it looks like you're dancing, the Greek word Χορευτή coming from χορός which means dance. 💃 That pie usually has savory filling but it makes sense to use the same technique for a sweet filling. The way you crinkle it in the video looks like a modern easier way to do it with a store bought phyllo. Also Phyllo (φύλλο) means leaf or layer in Greek, since its layers of dough. 🥬 I'm glad my family moved to Greece when i was 5 years old, i find the knowledge of the Greek language to be a fun bonus for so many things like in baking, video games and even medicine. 😊
Hey Emmy! I love watching your videos. You make new flavors sound like so much fun. You've given me a craving for a childhood favorite - Custard slices I would love to see your take on these. Greetings from Cape Town, South Africa
My grandmother used to make her own phyllo back in Lebanon which was a production number and a half (including cursing, yelling and other expressions of stress management) but after she came to America and discovered frozen which met her standards, things got a little quieter in the kitchen...
It was back in the 70s so I don't remember the brand but I do remember it was from Greece and it a blue box with Greek letters in white - I know, what a surprise - all over it. I used a box for a collage on languages for some project
I did it differently, for the custard I used sweetened condensed milk and regular milk (so no sugar crystals), two eggs and some vanilla of course, and instead of pouring sugar syrup on top I used a little bit of powdered sugar. That way it is still sweet, but not as overly sweet. It works the same way. (250 ml milk, 1 can of condensed milk - approx. 375 ml or whatever the normal size in your country is, 2 eggs and vanilla in whatever form you have available - to your taste. For the dough I only melted 100 g of butter, so a bit less than in this recipe, and instead of pouring I used a brush and brushed it on the sheets before crinkling. That way you need less butter, less sugar and it still tastes great, but saving you a bit on the calories 🙂 )
I wanted to let you know that the crinkle cake came out really delicious! I made 1/2 recipe. It is very rich so it does not take a lot for a serving. Thanks again for the recipe. It really was easy to make.
I made it just now… exactly as you instructed and it came out great. The chopped walnuts were a good idea and i added a lot. Too bad we cannot post pictures. Also I chose this recipe because I was salvaging some old phyllo that had been in the freezer a long time and was dry in some spots so was not suitable for any other use. The final cake did not look as nice as yours but I imagine it tastes as good. Thanks.
years ago a friend brought a pie from Louisiana, Peach pie.. the crust was philo (prebaked, nice n crispy all through) the filling was a peach cream chock full of sweet peach chunks and topped with a meringue. I've tried to duplicate it but no success ... best peach pie EVER !!!
I find your videos so relaxing. I always watch them before bed. Sometimes it takes me two days to finish a full video because I always drift off and miss half of it lol
I'm not a dessert baker but one time I was convinced to bring a dish to a potluck. My girlfriend taught me a recipe that's kind of similar to this one but easier: a layer of crescent roll dough from a can on the bottom of a pan, paint it with melted butter, then mix a tub of cream cheese with powdered sugar, spread that out on the crescent dough, top with another layer of canned crescent dough, paint with butter again and bake. It's sort of like danish and I was shocked to hear that the people running the potluck had to _hide it_ and portion it out so everyone would get to try some because it was literally no effort. You could also get real creative using flavored cream cheese or cocoa powder instead of sugar or adding fruit or chocolate chips and nuts to create several different variations of "easy danish".
You could change up the flavor profile so easily with this as a base and add different toppings on top. (Fruit, chocolate, nuts etc.) The sky's the limit.👍🏻😋
Good tip whilst makign sugar syrup: If you see sugar crystals to the side, get a cooking brish, dip it in cold/warm water and just brish it off. Learned this from Ann Reardon.
It really looks like something between mpougatsa and galaktompoureko! Mpougatsa would have powder sugar and cinnamon on top. There’s a cheese pie with a similar style of messy/less structured use of the phyllo called patsabouropita.

Yep my mind went immediately to mpougatsa too!
Interesting, kinda reminded me of a weird cross between mpougatsa and portokalopita (obviously without the oranges)?
It reminded me of something my mom makes. If you search the web for "σουλτάνα γλυκό" you'll see this "crinkle cake" appears to be a variation of that recipe.
Spot on. I think mpougasta too
If she used honey instead of simple syrup, it would have been more like γαλακτομπούρεκο
My earliest memory of my paternal grandmother is watching her stretch an enormous sheet of pastry dough for apple strudel over her kitchen table like a tablecloth. The patience! RIP, Grandma.
It’s absolutely mind boggling to imagine this paper thin pastry being made by hand, what an amazing woman your grandmother must have been.
In addition to the cinnamon, you could use honey, instead of simple syrup. For a holiday use food coloring in the syrup!
I think it would be great if you made the sugar syrup with rose or orange flower water to add another layer of flavor. A sprinkle of pistachios on top would be great too and pay homage to baklava.
That sounds great!
Oh that sounds delicious 🤤
I wonder about using honey instead of sugar to make the syrup
i add honey to my syrup, and top it with almonds
love baklava!
i actually have some at my house right now :)
Instead of the sugar syrup, use maple instead! Then if you're feeling a bit extra, also make a maple cream cheese drizzle for the top. Soooo good!
Oh Emmy, you, your channel and especially the audience you’ve cultivated are SO REFRESHING!!

It would no longer be a quick easy recipe, that's for sure.
Underrated comment
I was JUST thinking of that...
I think the fresh strawberries would add enough water that it would compromise the crunchy
I love watching you at night when it’s time to wine down for bed. Your content and voice, it just works.

My expectations were p low for this (its a tiktok recipe after all) but then I made it and it was DELISH
I love how you’re able to describe so well what it tastes like - it’s definitely worth giving it a try !
Substitute pumpkin pie filling in place of the custard, and you'd possibly have an interesting fall dessert...
That sounds really good Emmy! I would like to see a trade by you with maybe a little rosewater and sugar syrup and then just the ever so tiny bit of honey drizzled over the top instead

You should check it out and give it a try. Like you, I used store-bought Philo dough, but I made the cheesecake by scratch.
This would be really pretty if you cut the dough into strips and roll them up and cook them in a muffin pan. Little roses.
I think I might try it this way for individual servings, thank you for the idea! 💛
This looks like so much less of a PROCESS than baklava, which I love but rarely make. I'll give it a try!
I am always squeezing a lemon into the syrup to give it a tangy taste , otherwise is too sweet for me , it looks amazing!
ur videos are always so cozy omg and today wasn’t the best and it’s rainy so this is just what i need !!
I like baklava, but I believe I'm going to love this!!😊 I'm going to make it tomorrow! My grandkids are in for a treat!! Thanks for another great recipe!! Keep up the good work!! Hope you have a great day!
I absolutely love your videos and look forward to seeing what your gonna prepare. You are jus a joy to watch thank u 🥰🥰
I HAVE BEEN YOUR FAN FOR YEARS AND FOR THIS TO HAPPEN IS A DREAM COME TRUE!! WOW
jazz hands can make any dish taste awesome!
It kind of remind of Kouign Amann, a French desert from the Britanny region. It's made of pastry dough with tons of butter and sugar. So good 🤤
I wonder how this would be with lemon flavoring or lemon zest in it? It reminds me of this cake that's sold in my local grocery store called Ooie Gooie Butter cake!!! Yummmmm!!!!!
Do you live in/near Detroit? I think Emmy made that a few months ago.
@@CricketsBay gooey butter cake is iirc a St Louis thing...?
Our Detroit delicacy is Bumpy Cake!
My Grandma made something like this but she would spread applesauce and cinnamon sugar on each layer before she crinkled it up.
Baclava is not just Greek, it’s Levantine. It’s many Middle-eastern and Mediterranean countries’ traditional desert.
Baklava**
I made something like this but added blackberries, it was pretty good warmed up with whippy cream and a lil cinnamon 😊

i need to buy more baking pans because of you emmy!
There are worse problems to have in life! (But I know what you mean .... )
That is beautiful.
the quintessential greek dessert truly. filo pastry, custard and syrup.
It’s so pretty!
Some orange or lemon zest is nice in the custard and some juice can replace some of the water in the syrup
It is a very pretty cake!
You are just so lovely. Thank you for sharing yourself with us.
