Bavarian Cottage Cheese and Currant Cake
Lemon-scented cottage cheese and currants baked on a lightly sweet biscuit base.
Method
Steps
Step 1
For the proposed biscuit base, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder and salt; rub in cold butter. Stir in cold milk just until soft and cohesive, without kneading. Rest the soft dough briefly, then roll or shape to the thickness and form required by the specific dish.
Step 2
Heat oven to 180 °C, butter a 23 cm dish and line it with the proposed rolled biscuit dough.
Step 3
Mix drained cheese, melted butter, sugar, lemon zest, yolks, currants and salt. Beat whites stiff and fold through; spread over the biscuit base.
Step 4
As an explicit modern completion of the source's omitted bake, cook about 40–45 minutes until base golden and egg-cheese filling fully set. Serve warm or chill promptly below 4 °C for cold service.
