Layered cookies with cottage cheese

Description

Homemade pastries for tea. Puff pastry goes perfectly with cottage cheese and raisins. But if you're tired of this same combination of flavors, you can try adding apples, prunes, or dried apricots to the filling—indeed, any dried fruits you like. For freshness, add vanilla and lemon zest to the cottage cheese. Serve this dessert with tea or fruit juice, either cooled or slightly warm.
