Step-by-step cooking

Cooking time: 1 h 40 min
  1. Step 1:

    Step 1.

    If you have your own, proven recipe for shortbread dough, feel free to cook it. I'm still searching, so I melted butter in the microwave and mixed it with a whisk with sugar and salt.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2.

    Add water and sift the premium wheat flour in parts.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3.

    Knead the tight dough, assemble it into a ball and, tightening the bowl with cling film, put it in the refrigerator for half an hour.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4.

    Turn on the oven to warm up to 180 °C. Roll out the dough into a circle with a diameter larger than the size of the mold. I got a circle with a diameter of 26 cm: 18 cm - the inner part, and the sides of 4 cm. The form is silicone. The bottom was pre-lubricated with sunflower oil. Prick the cake with a fork. Bake the cake in the oven for 20 minutes. If this is not done, then the dough in the pie is almost guaranteed to be raw.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5.

    For the filling, put the cottage cheese and sour cream in a bowl. Add sugar and vanilla sugar.

  6. Step 6:

    Step 6.

    Using an immersion blender, whisk the mixture until smooth. Instead of a blender, you can pre-grind the cottage cheese through a sieve, and then mix with sour cream and sugar.

  7. Step 7:

    Step 7.

    Beat the eggs with a mixer until a slight increase in volume and the appearance of abundant bubbles.

  8. Step 8:

    Step 8.

    Gently stir the eggs into the curd mixture with a cooking spatula.

  9. Step 9:

    Step 9.

    Then pour the filling into the mold, onto the cake, and bake for 40 minutes at 180 ° C. The filling should stabilize. Keep an eye on the pie: if the top is slightly cracked, it means it's ready, 100%. But it's better not to bring it to this :)

A good and very satisfying pie. Before serving, decorate it with fresh berries as your imagination suggests.

Due to the use of a blender, the filling is homogeneous and tender, slightly sour from sour cream.

Bon appetit!

Be sure to wash the eggs before use, as even the seemingly clean shell may contain harmful bacteria. It is best to use food detergents and a brush.

Be prepared for the fact that flour may need more or less than indicated in the recipe. Focus not on the amount of flour, but on the desired consistency of the dough. To avoid mistakes, read about flour and its properties!

Keep in mind that everyone's ovens are different. The temperature and cooking time may differ from those specified in the recipe. To make the dish successful, use useful information about the features of ovens !
