Cottage cheese turnovers with sugar
Description
The recipe won't take much time. I really love these cookies because they're quick to prepare and turn out very tasty. I even make them for children, who absolutely adore them. They're also healthy, especially for kids who don't like cottage cheese on its own. Here, it's perfectly hidden in the dough.
