The recipe won't take much time. This popular dish is now found not only in Russian cuisine. Kovrizhka is prepared in various parts of the world using jam, nuts, dried fruits, or candied fruits. The dough is a classic "gingerbread" type (made with kefir) and is quick to prepare. That's why kovrizhka with blackcurrant jam is considered a quick-bake treat. Serve warm or chilled.
