Babcia's Corner's Chocolate and Raspberry Pierogi

Tastemaker
By Anna Faller | Feb. 10, 2024

For Valentine’s Day, our love language is chocolate, and Babcia’s Corner knows just how to speak it with their seasonal Chocolate and Raspberry Pierogi. Inspired by a traditional family recipe dating back generations, this not-too-sweet treat begins with dough made extra flavorful with butter, egg, and rich cocoa powder. Inside, each pasta packet is stuffed with a blend of local raspberry jam and their signature scratch-made Farmer’s Cheese (a mild and crumbly ricotta) with a melty Hershey’s Kiss at the center. Take home a six-pack ($15), or snack on a few in-store, which are griddled in butter and dusted with confectioner’s sugar. We’d take one of these over flowers any day! Choose from a selection of sweet and savory pierogi at Babcia’s Corner (110 E. Hammond Rd., Ste. 4) in Traverse City. bapgoodness.com
