Adventures in Russian Food #2

Сырок (syrok) is a type of curd snack that is commonly found in pretty much any store which sells food in Russia. It tastes kinda like cheesecake, but possibly a milder flavor. They come in multiple flavors (like vanilla, chocolate, raspberry...), with biscuit or without, and are covered in chocolate.
Vanilla Flavor


They cost 5-10 rubles a piece (less than 50 cents).
I'm not gonna lie these things are the most delicious things on the planet. Like gastronomical rapture. My best days start out with one of these guys. I know, cheesecake for breakfast. Kinda weird, definitely a little #eatingmyfeelings but my host mom seems to think it's normal to consume these so early. I'm not going to argue.

Сырок is better than Lobster Shack. Just sayin'

PS- I definitely found a recipe for these. It's gonna be dangerous.
