Vanilla cottage cheese casserole with sour cream
4 servings
55 minutes
Vanilla cottage cheese casserole with sour cream is a delicate and airy dish of European cuisine, rooted in traditional baked cottage cheese dessert recipes. Its soft texture is achieved by carefully mixing whipped egg whites with the cottage cheese mass, while vanilla adds a refined aroma. The casserole is sweet but not cloying, with a slight tang from the sour cream that creates a balance of flavors. It is perfect for breakfast or as a dessert, especially with berry sauce or honey. The casserole can be served hot when it is particularly airy or chilled for a dense, rich texture. An ideal choice for a cozy family tea time!
