Cheese Pie Made from Cottage Cheese Dough
Description
Tasty baked goods for the whole family. Making a cheese pie from cottage‑cheese dough is very simple, a recipe of the “go‑to” and “quick” variety. It’s a foolproof version, the pie always turns out! Very tasty, hearty, and simple. I strongly recommend trying it! You can use any cheese or even several kinds at once. You can add 1–2 cloves of garlic, fresh herbs, or your favorite spices to the filling.
