Cheese Pastry with Homemade Curd
Baking and Desserts • Russian
Description
This cheese pastry recipe is not quite traditional, as we made it with puff pastry, but regular store-bought or homemade dough will work just fine. It's not necessary to decorate the pie with berries on top, but it does give it a more appealing look. During baking, the pie will rise, but then it will settle due to temperature differences. This is normal. The amount of sugar can be adjusted to your taste. Enjoy your meal!
Ingredients
- Cottage cheese 20 oz
- Chocolate eggs 3 pieces
