These Rogelach are rich and delicious and so easy to make.
1 tablespoon Gefen Dry Yeast
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 cup warm water
1/2 pound butter or margarine
3 cups flour
3 egg yolks
1/2 cup pressed cottage cheese
1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
1/3 cup sugar
2-3 teaspoons Gefen Vanilla Extract
Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Dissolve yeast and sugar in water in a small mixing bowl and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine butter/margarine and flour until mixture is a sandy texture.
Add egg yolks and yeast mixture to flour mixture, combine until it forms a dough.
Separate the dough into five equal-sized balls.
Roll each ball out into a 10-inch round circle.
Coat each circle with cheese filling.

Roll up each slice from the wide end to the narrow end to form Rogelach.

These were awful. Definitely NOT rich. The dough looked beautiful and was very elastic and easy to roll but I noticed it didn’t have any sugar at all. I thought it would still taste good with the filling, but it was dry and tasteless. Recipe also doesn’t say how thick to place the filling and isn’t really thick enough to compensate for the totally sugarless yeast dough. Also, very impractical to include an ingredient – pressed cottage cheese – that is not readily available in 48 states (if NY and NJ sells a Cholov Yisroel brand). You could make your own dry or pressed cottage cheese by rinsing & straining out the liquid to leave only the curds. But why bother when there are thousands of better recipes calling for practical ingredients.
Pressed cottage cheese? I’ve never heard of pressed cottage cheese. What does that mean?
Hi- pressed cottage cheese is pressed dry cottage cheese (aka dry-curd cottage cheese) is a soft, crumbly unripened cheese with white, dry curds. It is made from skim milk that is curdled with an acid or rennet. it can be found in most local supermarkets.
