Indonesian Thick Pancake With Nutella and Cheese - Martabak Manis

I had a lunch with friends this afternoon, Nita, Yuliana and I went to one of the Indian restaurant in town. After the lunch we decided to go to Nita’s house because Nita wanted me to make some sweet treat that she’s been craving for quite sometimes. Yeah...we’ve been talking about it for months!! just got time to make it today.

We called these sweet treat as “Martabak Manis” in Indonesia, a very thick pancake, and they normally filling with chocolate sprinkles, cheese, crushed peanuts and condensed milk.
like...really condensed milk with cheese?? 🤔
Oh yeah...!! other than eating spicy food, Indonesian also like to eat sweet food/treats. I mean, for me, I don’t really like to combine cheese and condensed milk to be honest, but some people does.

ah, well...
as we were running out of crushed peanuts and chocolate sprinkles, we only filling it with nutella and cheese and no condensed milk, lucky the three of us don’t really like super sweet foods.
