Fitness Cottage Cheese Cookies

7. 10. 2025

Although many people condemn the healthier versions of candy and other treats, this recipe is very successful.

In the final version, it is just as tasty as a classic white flour cookie. After all, judge for yourself!

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups of wholegrain rye flour
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 cup of butter
  • 1 1/2 cup of low-fat cottage cheese
  • pinch of salt
  • apricot jam for gluing
  • natural unsalted pistachios (for sprinkle)

Method:

  • Put the whole grain rye flour in a bowl, add a pinch of salt, chopped butter, cottage cheese, and egg yolk, and process everything into a smooth, non-sticky dough (if it is sticky, add a little flour).
  • Wrap the finished dough in cling film and let it rest in the fridge for 2 to 3 hours.
  • Anyone who wants to can easily make it one day and process it the next day.
  • Put the dough on a floured rolling pin and roll it into a 0.2-inch thick sheet. Cut out motifs like stars, trees, and the like, and put them on a baking sheet lined with baking paper.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and bake the cookies for about 15 to 20 minutes, depending on the oven.
  • It should be pink, but if you’re unsure about using a different flour, you can try sticking a skewer into one of the flowers.
  • After baking, let the cookies cool, and then use apricot marmalade to glue one cookie to the other.
  • Once done, sprinkle some chopped unsalted pistachios onto each cookie.
  • If you like, you can coat the flowers with chocolate glaze and then sprinkle with pistachios.
