Cottage cheese shortbread dough

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   We begin the preparation of curd-shortbread dough by combining butter with cottage cheese. The oil must first be taken out of the refrigerator and let it lie at room temperature so that it softens.

2. Step 2:

   

   Combine flour with baking powder and a pinch of salt and mix.

3. Step 3:

   

   Cottage cheese and butter are kneaded together into a plastic mass.

4. Step 4:

   

   First knead with a fork, and then manually.

5. Step 5:

   

   Pour the flour mixture into the curd-butter mass and knead the dough.

6. Step 6:

   

   We form a lump of cottage cheese and shortbread dough and put it in the refrigerator for 40 minutes, you can cover it with cling film or a towel.

7. Step 7:

   

   We take the cooled dough out of the refrigerator, put it on a floured table and proceed to the formation of products.

9. Step 8:

   

   Before rolling, divide the dough into 2 or 3 parts and roll them out separately.

10. Step 9:

    

    It is best to prepare cookies or pie with filling from chilled curd-shortbread dough, rolling out the dough with a rolling pin to the desired thickness. For example, for cookies "Crow's feet" or "Handkerchiefs" you need to roll out thinly, about 2 mm.

11. Step 10:

    

    Cut out circles from the rolled dough.

12. Step 11:

    

    Dip the circles with one side in sugar and add them in 4 additions to make triangles.

13. Step 12:

    

    An incision can be made from the open edge on each triangle, forming a "foot".

14. Step 13:

    

    Dough products are laid out on a greased baking sheet.

15. Step 14:

    

    The time of baking cookies from cottage cheese and shortbread dough in the oven at 180 degrees is 25-30 minutes.
