Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
For the filling, we will need 200 g of cottage cheese, 40 g of powdered sugar, 30 g of flour, 20 g of sour cream, and half an egg yolk (save the other half for brushing, mixing it immediately with water to prevent the yolk from drying out). Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and mix with a mixer.
Step 2
For the dough, combine softened butter, 1 egg, salt, and the remaining powdered sugar in a bowl. Beat well with a mixer.
Step 3
Mix the remaining flour with the baking powder and add it to the dough. Stir well.
Step 4
Shape the dough into a ball. Divide it into 6 pieces (about 70 g each, if you have a scale). Roll each piece into a short sausage shape. Then, roll it out on a floured surface.
Step 5
Place 45 grams of filling on one half, then cover it with the other half so that the filling is slightly visible.
Step 6
Place the pastries on parchment paper or a greased baking sheet. Brush the pastries with a mixture of egg yolk and water.
Step 7
Bake at 390°F for 25 minutes.
