Cottage cheese cake with dried apricots is a delicate pastry filled with the softness of cottage cheese and the sweetness of dried apricots. This dessert comes from European cuisine, where the balance of flavor and texture is valued. It features airy dough with added dried apricots, which give the cake juiciness and a slight tartness. The cake turns out tender, slightly moist, and is perfect with tea or coffee. Thanks to the cottage cheese, it has a pleasant density, while vanilla and powdered sugar complete its aromatic composition. Simple to prepare yet elegant in presentation—ideal as an everyday dessert or a treat for guests.
