Description

These are an easy and quick treat that everyone will love.

Ingredients

  • FOR THE BUTTERHORNS:
  • 2 cups All-purpose Flour
  • 1-½ cup Cottage Cheese
  • 2 sticks Margarine (NOT Butter)
  • 9 slices Your Favorite Cheese, Cut Into Fourths (optional For Savory Version)
  • FOR THE FROSTING:
  • 2 cups Powdered Sugar
  • ½ sticks Butter
  • 2 cups Cream/Milk Or Enough For Desired Consistency

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 375F. Combine all of the butterhorn ingredients (except the slices of cheese, which are an optional topping) in a large bowl with a pastry cutter. Knead the dough until it holds together. This should take about 6 or 7 kneads.

2. Separate the dough into 3 equal parts and form each into a ball. Roll out each ball into a 10-12 inch round. Cut each round into 12 pizza sized slices/wedges. Roll each wedge into a crescent shape from the wide end to the skinny tip.

3. Place the crescents on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake in a single layer in the middle of the oven for 30-40 minutes or until golden. Let cool on a wire rack.

* For Sweet Butterhorns frost with a simple frosting: Combine the powdered sugar and butter in a small bowl. Add cream/milk until you reach your desired frosting consistency. Drizzle the frosting over the cooled butterhorns.

* For Savory Butterhorns: Top each with a small slice of your favorite cheese (I recommend Swiss and cheddar)and let it melt in the oven for the last 2 minutes of the baking time.

These are great. I thought they might not be very good, since I had never made a dough with cottage cheese but these are sweet, crispy and soft. I used butter instead of margarine and baked them at 350 for 30min exactly and they were perfect. Will make again for sure.
