2. Line a pie pan with parchment paper and lightly grease it with butter. Set aside three tablespoons of dough for topping the pie. Place the remaining dough into the pan, pressing and smoothing it firmly. For the filling, beat the egg with sugar until fluffy, then add cottage cheese, starch, and vanilla sugar. Mix until smooth. Pour the resulting cheese mixture over the dough in the pan.
