Instructions

Let's follow the instructions for cooking it

  1. In a large bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, and salt.
  2. In a medium bowl, grate butter.
  3. Crumble the dry cottage cheese into with the butter and mix them together.
  4. Mix the butter and cheese with the flour blend.
  5. Using your hand, mix into a dough and knead for about 5 minutes.
  6. Roll out the dough on a floured wooden surface, and fold it. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  7. Repeat kneading, rolling, and resting in refrigerator twice.
  8. When ready, roll the dough to a 1-inch thickness, and cut into rounds with a biscuit cutter.
  9. Preheat oven to 375F.
  10. With the point of a sharp knife, score the tops of the biscuits in a lattice.
  11. Beat the egg yolks with 1 tsp of water, and brush the glaze onto the biscuit tops.
  12. Sprinkle cheese on top.
  13. Bake for 25 min, or until golden brown.
  14. Cool on a wire rack and serve as a snack, with soup, or, as George suggests, as an accompaniment with wine. Mmm. Now there's an idea!
