Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make quick cottage cheese cookies? Prepare the necessary products. You can take cottage cheese of any fat content. It is important that it is not hard and not sour. You can use a packaged product. Remove the butter from the refrigerator in advance and leave at room temperature until it becomes soft.

Step 2

Combine flour with baking powder and vanilla, sift through a sieve. The flour will be enriched with oxygen, and the cookies will rise better during baking.

Step 3

Step 3
Grind the cottage cheese with sugar. Add the amount of sugar to taste. If the cottage cheese is not soft enough, grind it in a blender. My cottage cheese is small flakes, but soft. I just quickly mashed it with a fork.

Add an egg to the curd mass. Mix well until smooth.

Step 5
Add soft butter and stir quickly.

Step 6

Pour the flour sifted with baking powder and vanilla into the dough, mix first with a spoon. Do not pour out all the flour at once. You may need more or less than indicated. This will also be affected by the moisture content of the cottage cheese. Read more about this in the link at the end of the recipe. Mix most of the flour and add the rest in small portions.

Step 7

The dough should hold its shape well, almost not stick to your hands, but be soft and pliable. Quickly gather the curd dough into a ball with your hands. Wrap it in a bag or cling film and put it in the refrigerator for half an hour.

Step 8

Step 8
Divide the chilled dough into equal parts. Roll each part into a bun and press on top to make a cookie 1-1.5 cm thick. You can roll out the dough into a layer and cut out cookies with cookie cutters.

Step 9

Place the formed cookies on a parchment-lined baking sheet at some distance from each other. The cookies will rise slightly during baking.

Step 10

Step 10
Bake the cottage cheese cookies in an oven preheated to 180 C for about 20 minutes. The cookies should remain pale and only slightly browned. Then it will be soft and tender. Cookies that are too brown may turn out dry. The baking time and mode are individual and depend on the operating characteristics of the oven. This must be taken into account.
