Preparation

  • Step 1

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter 2 large baking trays, set aside.

  • Step 2

    In a large bowl combine cottage cheese, eggs, 1 cup flour and baking powder. Mix just until combined.

  • Step 3

    Sprinkle the center, lengthwise, of a long sheet of parchment paper with remaining ½ cup flour. Pour batter on top of flour in a line.

  • Step 4

    Roll sides of parchment back and forth to create a flour covered log of batter until it's about 14 to 18" long. Dough/log will be soft.

  • Step 5

    Cut dough log into rough 1 ½-inch pieces and gently place on buttered sheet tray.

  • Step 6

    Bake until set, about 20 minutes.

  • Step 7

    Just out of the oven, dot lidnivikis with butter and serve warm with sour cream.

*note from Jenn: this recipe could use a bit of salt for my taste, but my grandmother made it just the way it is written above.
