Basis of the recipe

Such pies are also called Hungarian. Probably because their recipe came to us from the national cuisine of this wonderful country. And you have probably seen such pies on the windows of numerous pastry shops. They are usually sold cut into square pieces and are called “Vienna biscuits”.

Housewives love grated pies for their versatility. The filling can be almost everything that is in the kitchen: cottage cheese, fresh or frozen berries, fruits, jam, preserves, jams. The peculiarity of grated pie is at its base. This is a classic shortbread dough, but how you use it for the cake depends only on your desire. You can roll it into a layer, or you can freeze and grate on a coarse grater or make crumb out of it. This changes not only the appearance of baked goods, but also the taste becomes more varied.

Grated cottage cheese pies are very tasty and easy to prepare

Most often, grated pie is made like this: for the bottom layer, part of the dough is rolled into a layer, the filling is spread on it, and sprinkled on top with grated or crumbled remaining dough. In this form, the dessert is baked in the oven. It is for this ease of preparation that grated pies are loved by many.

The first thing you need for such a cake is shortbread (buttery) dough. If you are still new to cooking and do not know how to cook it, then our tips will probably come in handy for you.

For a shortbread classic dough, you need the following products:

• Wheat flour;
• butter (sometimes butter margarine is used instead);
• chicken eggs;
• soda (or baking powder);
• sour cream (you can use cream);
• sugar.

The amount of ingredients depends on the specific recipe and the number of servings.

The easiest pie set

This dough is prepared quite simply. Flour is mixed with baking powder, softened, slightly melted butter, egg, cream and sugar are added. Everything is thoroughly mixed to a very tough and elastic consistency. From the dough you need to form 2 balls, wrap them with cling film, and then keep in the refrigerator for about half an hour.

We have introduced cottage cheese into the recipe so that the pies become especially tender, and moreover, healthy. Choose cottage cheese according to your own taste - fat or not very. Many housewives recommend taking sweet cottage cheese or adding more sugar to it. But if you love the natural sour taste, then such an experiment will only be beneficial.
