Description

As a fragrant addition, I recommend adding finely grated orange zest to the dough: this spice works wonderfully in desserts that involve chocolate and cottage cheese.

Ingredients

Semi-soft cream cheese - 12.7 oz
Large eggs - 1 piece
Semolina - 1.1 oz
Coarsely Ground Rye Flour - 0.9 oz
Liquid dark chocolate - 2.5 oz
Brown Sugar - 1.4 oz
Vanilla extract - ½ teaspoon
Salt - a pinch

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Beat the egg with salt and sugar.

Step 2

In a deep bowl, sift the cottage cheese (preferably fatty but well-drained), mix it with the sifted flour, and add the vanilla extract.

Step 3

Combine the egg mixture with the cottage cheese mixture and knead a sticky, pliable dough.

Step 4

Break the chocolate bar into pieces. Roll the cottage cheese dough into a log, cut it into equal parts, and, rolling in semolina, shape the pancakes to your desired size. Place a piece of chocolate inside each one.

Step 5

Fry the pancakes on both sides in vegetable oil in a well-heated skillet over medium heat. Place the finished pancakes on a paper towel to remove excess oil.
