I have never made strudel or even read a recipe to make it before. I make something very similar to a cinnamon-walnut one, though. A friend and I have been making potica at Christmas for 5 years. The real difference is the dough is a sweet bread dough and instead of using butter, we use whipping cream, beaten to the soft peak stage with honey. We spread it on the stretched dough with our hands, sprinkle a walnut, cinnamon, and sugar mixture over it and roll it. I'm going to try a strudel now, I already have the stretching technique down!
