Cottage Cheese Roll Cookies

Cottage cheese roll cookies are strips of soft cottage cheese dough about 3 cm wide, rolled up into little spirals and baked for 30 minutes at 180 C. The dough has no eggs, just cottage cheese and butter, and you can add cinnamon inside if you like. Just right for tea time - I recommend it, enjoy!

Tips

• The required 30 minutes in the fridge makes the dough easier to roll out.
• Roll the sheet thin - then the roll will have well-defined layers.
• Add ground cinnamon if you like, sprinkling it over the rolled-out sheet before cutting.
