Сырки глазированные (aka Glazed Cream Cheese) sounds amazing right?! These tasty little treats are traditional desserts for kids, but we figured we all have a little kid in us especially when it comes to unchartered food territory. Sirki have a chocolate "glaze" that wraps around a thick layer of creamy cheese, and usually there is some sort of fruit filling tucked away in the middle.
There are numerous different brands and some boast as many as 24 flavors! You can find these en masse at Russian bazas, such as Net Cost Market, where this picture was taken (located on East 16th Street between Avenue U and V). Net Cost probably has the best selection of Sirki that we have seen and you can check out a ton of other tasty Russian foods while you are shopping. Our personal favorite is anything peach, but we also recommend the double chocolate flavor. Keep these in the freezer to maintain their freshness and make sure to eat them right after you pull it out...that is for optimum flavor (and so it won't get smashed up). The price ranges from $1-2 per bar depending on the brand, but for that cheap you can afford to try more than a few.
