Simple cottage cheese cookies
Description
Delicious baked treats for the whole family. This cookie is very easy to prepare, yet turns out wonderfully tasty, slightly crispy, and aromatic. The main feature of these cookies is their shape and the topping of sugar and cinnamon, which gives the cottage cheese cookies their appetizing fragrance. The dough prepared according to this recipe can be stored in the refrigerator for 2 hours or even up to a day without spoiling. I recommend using cottage cheese with 5%-9% fat content, as it results in less crumbly dough. See below for details. The baked goods are ready. Serve at the table.
