I value French pastry for the opportunities which it gives me. I like it and I use it very often. It is excellent for tarts, shepherd's pie, dumplings and desserts. Today I made some swift cookies with French pastry with cottage cheese and fruit. They look beautiful with the seasonal fruit. If you make them in the winter, use citrus fruit, kiwi fruit or grapes. The cookies will be great.

Ingredients (6 cookies)
1 pack of French pastry
200g of cottage cheese
2 egg yolks
6 tablespoons of brown sugar
2 tablespoons of potato flour
2 tablespoons of milk
fruit for decoaration

Heat the oven up to 190C. Cover a baking sheet with some baking paper.
Cut 6 squares out of the French pastry. Mix the cottage cheese with 4 tablespoons of the brown sugar, potato flour and egg yolks. Put the mixture onto the squares, leaving a 1-cm edge. Spread the edge with some milk and sprinkle with the rest of the sugar. Bake for 20 minutes. Decorate with the fruit and peppermint leaves before serving.

Enjoy your meal!
