• 500g cottage cheese
• 180g sour cream

Takes 50mins - 1 Hour, serves 6.

Instructions

1. Put flour in a bowl and add softened butter, sugar and 1 egg yolk. Make a nice shortcrust pastry (soft but compact) and set aside in a fridge until you finish preparing the filling.
2. In a separate bowl mix together the cottage cheese, sour cream and plain yogurt. Separate egg yolks and egg white and beat the egg whites then add sugar to egg whites and then mix it all into the filling mix.
3. Take a round baking pan approx. 27 cm and line it with baking paper. Take the buckwheat shortcrust pastry out of the fridge and press it into the pan with hands, making a nice even base. Take a toothpick and spike the whole pastry.
4. Pour the filling onto the pastry and bake it at 160 degrees Celsius for 50-60 min.
5. Let the cake cool at room temperature and when cooled spread on top the apricot marmalade, add some sliced red apricots for additional colour pop and serve.
