Description

The recipe for the cottage cheese cake is wonderful because it is basic – the dough made with rich, buttery, fluffy ingredients is exceptionally tender thanks to the addition of pureed cottage cheese, and you can give it any flavor and aroma. For example, you can make the cake with lemon or orange zest, add poppy seeds and candied fruits, or a splash of strong liquor – calvados, cognac, rum, or some interesting liqueur would work well.

Ingredients

Sugar - 8.8 oz
Wheat Flour - 7.9 oz
Cottage cheese - 7.1 oz
Butter - 4.1 oz
Chicken Egg - 3 pieces
Baking Powder - 0.2 oz
Vanillin - 0 oz
Powdered Sugar - to taste

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Pass the cottage cheese through a sieve. This is necessary for a smooth texture of the dough.

Step 2

Beat the softened butter with sugar until smooth.

Step 3

Without stopping the mixer, add the eggs one at a time and beat until you achieve a smooth, creamy texture.

Step 4

Stir in the cottage cheese and vanilla, then add the flour with the baking powder and mix until smooth.

Step 5

Grease a rectangular baking dish with oil or line it with parchment paper. Transfer the batter to the dish and place it in an oven preheated to 338°F for one hour. Allow the finished cake to cool completely before serving, dusted with powdered sugar.
