  1. Step 1:

    Step 1

    Gather everything you need for the curd bars. You can use cottage cheese and sour cream of any fat percentage. The richer the cottage cheese and sour cream, the denser the bars will turn out.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2

    In a bowl, combine the cottage cheese, sour cream, egg, sugar, vanilla sugar, and salt. It's best to stir everything together with a fork rather than a mixer, so the texture stays tender and the bars taste much better.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3

    Whisk the flour with the baking powder, sift it into the curd mixture, and knead a soft dough that no longer sticks to your hands. Depending on your flour, you may need a little more or a little less than the amount listed. With hands dampened in water, shape the dough into bars.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4

    Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet and add the curd bars, frying them on both sides until golden brown. Transfer the finished bars to paper towels to blot the excess oil, then arrange them on your serving plate. Dust with sugar or powdered sugar and serve.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5

    They're delicious with milk, coffee, or tea, and my family loves them with a spoonful of sour cream. They come together fast and make a satisfying full breakfast. The cottage cheese tea bars are ready in 15 minutes! Enjoy!

  • I reach for cottage cheese all the time when making desserts and baked goods, since it's both delicious and good for you. It's rich in casein, a milk protein that the body absorbs well, that keeps you full, and that helps build and repair muscle tissue. Cottage cheese isn't just great for kids, it's also good for older folks, since it helps strengthen bones, which matters more with age. I really hope you enjoy this simple, quick little dessert.
