EMPANADITAS DE QUESCO

 

1 C sifted flour

1 tsp baking powder

2 T butter

2 egg yolks, beaten

2 T water

4 T cottage cheese

4 T cream cheese

1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp chili powder

1 egg white

Oil for deep frying

 

Sift together flour and baking powder, cut in the butter with a pastry

blender. Add the egg yolks and water and toss to coat the mixture to make a

soft dough. Combine the cottage and cream cheeses, salt and chili powder,

mixing until smooth. Beat the egg white until stiff and fold into the

cheese mixture.

Roll the dough out as thinly as possible. Cut into rounds with cookie cutter

or edge of glass. Place a teaspoon of the cheese mixture on each round and

fold over the dough sealing the edges. Press the edges with tines of a fork.

Heat oil to 375 ºF and fry each empanadita until browned. Drain well.
