You've probably already guessed what word the name "sochnik" comes from. We confirm: from the word juice. The fact is that the first sochniki were flat cakes made of unleavened dough, greased with juice or oil from hemp seeds. Now things are a little different: you can make delicious sochniki in the oven with any filling made from shortcrust or yeast dough. We chose sochniki with cottage cheese, our step-by-step recipe will help you bake the same. Prepare cottage cheese and sour cream for the filling!

How to cook Cottage cheese sochniki

Step 1

Prepare the dough: mix the egg, butter, powdered sugar and salt. Add flour in parts, add the flour and mix well.

Step 2

Prepare the filling: mash the cottage cheese with sugar, add half of the yolk and mix. Add sour cream, flour and mix again.

Step 3

Divide the dough into 6 parts, roll each part into an oval. Spoon the filling onto one half of the oval and close with the other half. Form the remaining sochniki in the same way.

Step 4

Brush the sochniki with the remaining yolk, place on a baking sheet and place in a preheated oven for 20 minutes.
