German Cottage Cheese Cakes

These are delicious.

Yield: 6 to 8 cakes

Ingredients

• 2 cups cottage cheese
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 eggs, separated
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• Water

Instructions

1. Combine cottage cheese, egg yolks and salt. Add egg whites to flour. Add enough water to moisten flour, as for pastry.
2. Roll dough and cut into 6 inch circles. Put 2 tablespoons of cheese mixture on half of the circle. Fold over other side and fasten edges securely. Drop half moons in a large pan of boiling water. When done, these will float on top of the water.
