Cottage Cheese and Poppy Seed Cookies

Cottage cheese and poppy seed cookies are a quick homemade bake made from a simple cottage cheese dough: rounds are rolled out, sprinkled with sugar and poppy seeds, then folded into triangles. Half an hour in the oven and you have fragrant cookies for tea. I recommend making these at home - you'll love them!

Tips

• Shape: if you don't have a cutter, a regular drinking glass works fine for cutting the rounds.
• Rolling: roll the dough thin - the cookies come out more delicate.
