Ingredients

  • 1 cup sifted all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/3 cup butter or substitute
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese
  • Paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon celery seed (optional)

Step 1: Preheat the Oven and Prepare Dry Ingredients

Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C).

In a bowl, sift together 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder.

This ensures the ingredients are well combined and helps create a lighter texture.

Step 2: Incorporate the Butter

Next, cut in 1/3 cup of butter or an appropriate substitute into the flour mixture using a pastry cutter or your fingers.

Continue mixing until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs, which will help provide flakiness to your final product.

Step 3: Combine the Cottage Cheese Mixture

In a separate bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of milk with 1/2 cup of cottage cheese until well combined.

Then, stir this cottage cheese mixture into the flour mixture.

Mix until everything is well combined and a dough forms.

Step 4: Roll Out the Dough

Turn the dough out onto a floured board.

Using a rolling pin, roll it to a thickness of 1/8 inch.

Once rolled out, cut the dough into 1/2 inch strips, creating the desired shape for your cookies or biscuits.

Step 5: Prepare for Baking

Place the cut strips onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Brush each strip with milk for a nice golden finish.

If desired, sprinkle with paprika and, for added flavor, 1/2 teaspoon of celery seed.

Step 6: Bake and Enjoy

Finally, bake the strips in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until they are lightly browned.

Keep an eye on them to ensure they don’t over-bake.

Once done, remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.

Enjoy your delicious baked strips!
