Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cup farmer's cheese
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 5 tbsp salted butter melted
- 2 cup all-purpose flour
For Serving
- melted butter
- jam
- sour cream
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the eggs with farmer's cheese, sugar, and melted butter.
- Into the wet ingredients, fold in the all-purpose flour in small portions. Note: depending on the flour you use, you may need to add a bit more. The dough should be sticky, but possible to work with on a well-floured surface.
- Place the dough onto a well-floured surface. Roll out strings of dough and cut them into 1-inch pieces.
- Bring a pot of water to boil. In batches, boil the dumplings so they don't stick together, stirring them occasionally. You'll know they are ready when they float to the top of the water. Drain them and immediately toss them in melted butter.
- Serve with sour cream, jam, or your favorite fruit. Enjoy!
