Štrukli are a traditional Croatian delicacy that hails from the Zagorje region. In addition to the more common baked štrukli, this cooked variety starts with a similar preparation in which the dough is thinly rolled, then filled with a mixture of whipped butter, eggs, fresh cheese, sour cream, and salt.

Traditionally, the dough is rolled with the help of a tablecloth, and the rolls are then cut with the rim of a plate into smaller pieces that are cooked in water. Though they can be served in a variety of ways, cooked štrukli are traditionally topped with a combination of butter and breadcrumbs.

They are enjoyed as a starter or a main course, and can also be altered to create a filling dessert. Once a local specialty, štrukli are nowadays regarded as a national dish that had become a restaurant staple, while the ready-made versions are available at bakeries and supermarkets throughout the country.
