Cottage cheese casserole in the oven
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. The cottage cheese casserole will never turn out as tender when cooked by any other method. The dough has an incredibly soft texture, melting in your mouth, and is remarkably airy. This casserole can also be taken to work or packed for a child's school lunch. The finished dessert can be served immediately.
