Cherry tart with cottage cheese
Description
The pastry is simple and quick to prepare. To enhance the pie's aroma, you can use vanilla extract or vanilla sugar. Bake until a nice crust forms, but the pie will be ready only after it has completely cooled down—it will become denser and slightly settle. To prevent the dough from puffing up during baking, be sure to prick it with a fork. Easy and delicious—give it a try!
