Cottage cheese biscuit with poppy seeds and raisins

Recipe with poppy seeds and raisins.

Ingredients

• Fat rustic cottage cheese - 500 g
• Sugar - about 1 cup (150-200 g)
• Eggs - 6 pcs.
• Butter (room temperature) - 200 g
• Flour - 3 cups (450 g)
• Starch - 1/2 cup (80 g)
• Vanilla - to taste
• Poppy - 80-100 g (to taste)
• Raisins - 80-100 g (to taste)
• Rum (optional, for raisins)
• Baking powder - 1 sachet (15 g)
• Whipped cream (optional)

Directions

1. My cottage cheese was quite grainy, so I threshed it in a blender with eggs, softened butter and sugar until smooth.
2. Sifted flour, starch, vanilla, then baking powder went there.
3. At the last moment, manually mix with poppy seeds and raisins (it would be nice to hold the raisins for a couple of hours in rum).
4. (You can also knead the dough with yolks first. And add the egg whites whipped into a thick foam just before baking - carefully, moving from bottom to top with a spoon.)
5. Preheat oven to 180 degrees. Cover the form with parchment, greased with oil, put the dough into the form. Bake the curd biscuit for 25-30 minutes (depending on the size of the shape and the ability of the oven). Check the readiness of the curd biscuit with a wooden stick - it should be dry.
