Greetings, dear readers of my blog. Today I want to talk about baking, which I'm sure everyone has tried. These are cottage cheese cookies. And I have no doubt about its popularity, since it is one of the easiest dishes to prepare. The ingredients in it are the simplest and most popular, everyone has them at home. I'm sure you've also had those moments when you want something tasty, but don't want to run to the store. That’s when delicious treats like cottage cheese cookies come in handy.
When I was preparing this article, I became convinced that there are a lot of recipes. This means that with the same set of ingredients, just changing them a little, you can diversify your home menu and pamper your loved ones. The dough for cottage cheese cookies is shortbread and elastic. Therefore, it can be shaped into triangles, ears, envelopes, and many more varieties. Now you will see this.
One of the easiest recipes to prepare. Its peculiarity is that we make the filling from cottage cheese with flour in the form of crumbs.
Ingredients:
For the test:
- cottage cheese - 300 gr.
- flour - 450 gr.
- butter- 300 gr.
- egg - 2 pcs. (1 for greasing cookies)
- sugar - 1 tbsp. l.
- salt - a pinch
- vanillin
For filling:
- flour - 1/2 cup
- butter - 100 gr.
- sugar - 4 tbsp. l.
Pour flour into a bowl and rub in cooled butter.
I also use one secret if the butter has softened and started to stick to the grater. Just dip it in flour periodically.
Add salt, sugar, vanilla sugar and baking powder. If you use soda, quench it with vinegar.
When soda and vinegar are combined, carbon dioxide is released, which “loosens” the structure of the dough, that is, makes it more fluffy.
Beat the egg a little and add it to the dough.
Knead the dough with your hands, but without fanaticism. We won’t knead for long, otherwise the oil will heat up from our hands and ruin the entire structure. 5 minutes of kneading is enough.
Form the dough into a ball, wrap it in film and place it in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
In the meantime, let's prepare the filling for our delicacy. The butter here may be slightly softened, cut it into pieces, mix with flour and sugar. Knead with your hands until crumbs form.
Take the dough out of the refrigerator and roll it out into a thin layer, and pour the crumbs of cottage cheese and flour on top. If desired, you can add nuts or poppy seeds, for example.
Roll the dough into a roll and cut into portions.
All that remains is to place the cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment and brush the top with egg. If desired, you can sprinkle with nuts or poppy seeds.
Bake in the oven for 40 minutes until beautifully golden brown. The temperature should be about 180 degrees.
Cottage cheese cookies "Crow's feet" without eggs
I would also call these cookies “It couldn’t be simpler.” A suitable recipe if you want to quickly prepare delicious pastries for tea. And if there is cottage cheese at home, then once or twice the family will gather for tea.
Ingredients:
- cottage cheese - 400 gr.
- flour - 350 gr.
- butter - 200 gr.
- sugar - 1 tbsp. l.
- baking powder or soda - 1 tsp.
Pour the flour into a deep bowl and grate the butter there. Let me remind you that you need to put the butter in the freezer for 20 minutes. After grating some butter, mix it with flour and knead it with your hands. Then grate again and combine with flour again. The dough comes out in the form of crumbs.
Now the cottage cheese needs to be crushed using a blender to a homogeneous soft mass.
Combine flour and cottage cheese and knead the dough with your hands. Moreover, this needs to be done quite quickly, until the butter begins to melt. The dough turns out crumbly, not perfectly homogeneous and quite sticky.
Wrap the dough in cling film and place in the refrigerator for 1 hour. After this it becomes more elastic.
Roll it out into a thin layer on a table sprinkled with flour. Using a glass, cut out circles.
Cut only a small piece of dough, which you will immediately roll out, and it is better to keep the rest in the refrigerator for now.
Now dip one side of each circle into sugar, fold it in half and dip one side into sugar again. And dipping it again, we get a triangle.
We do this with all the dough. By the way, if you think there are enough cookies, you can store the remaining dough in the freezer and defrost it if necessary.
Place the cookies on a baking sheet and bake in the oven at 180 degrees for about 40 minutes.

For more flavor, grate the zest from half a lemon.
Grind everything with a blender until smooth.
When the curd mass is ready, set it aside.
Sift flour with baking powder into a separate bowl. Place the butter in the freezer for a few minutes ahead of time until it becomes hard and easy to grate.
Rub this block of butter on a coarse grater directly into the flour.
Mix butter and flour. You should get floury, heterogeneous crumbs. We combine it with the curd mass and knead the dough.
We try to knead the dough quickly so that the butter does not melt.
The kneaded dough should not stick to clean hands. We place it in a plastic bag and put it in the refrigerator for 20 minutes to brew.

Roll out the bun into a thin cake. Using a mold or glass, squeeze out circles. These are our future cookies.
Pour sugar into a plate. Take a circle of dough and roll one side of it in sugar.
Then fold the circle in half so that the sugar is inside. Dip one side of the semicircle into sugar again.
Fold the semicircle in half again so that the sugar is inside. And now we’ll dip one side of this small triangle into sugar again.
Place the triangle on a baking sheet with the sugar side up and, to give it the appearance of a goose foot, make two small cuts.
