Cherry cheesecake muffin
Description
Perfectly pairs with tea and coffee. 1. Start by preparing the dough. Place cottage cheese and sugar into a deep bowl. Mix thoroughly until smooth and uniform. 2. Add eggs, a pinch of salt, vanilla, and baking soda (previously extinguished with vinegar or lemon juice). 3. In many similar recipes for cottage cheese cake with cherries, vegetable oil is commonly used. However, in this case, melted butter is used instead. 4. Add sour cream for a smoother consistency, then gradually incorporate sifted flour. 5. The dough should turn out soft and lump-free. 6. In a small bowl, combine cherries (make sure to use pitted cherries as required by the recipe) and starch. Coat the cherries thoroughly on all sides, then add them to the dough. 7. Gently mix once more, then transfer the batter into a greased heatproof baking dish, optionally lined with parchment paper. 8. Place the dish into a preheated oven. Bake the cake at medium temperature for about 45–55 minutes. Before serving, homemade cottage cheese cherry cake can be decorated with sour cream, powdered sugar, or fresh berries. The baked cake is ready. Serve at the table.
