Simple cottage cheese dough
Description
The baking is simple and quick. This cottage cheese dough can be used not only for cookies, but also for pies or cake layers. To prepare the simple cottage cheese dough, we need fresh, creamy cottage cheese and, importantly, butter (not margarine or spread, but real butter—82.5% fat content). By the way, you can shape the cookies however you like—they don't have to be flat. Serve them cooled or slightly warm.

Step 2
If your cottage cheese has lumps or clumps, press it through a sieve: there should be no lumps. Soft cottage cheese does not need to be sieved again.

Add as much flour as needed. You'll get a fairly dense ball that can still be rolled out.

Step 6
Sprinkle the dough with sugar, and it's better to roll it out on parchment paper or through parchment paper. Then you can cut out cookies using any cookie cutters you like.
