Cheese Buttons

Erik and I had a great Memorial Day weekend, but what 3-day weekend isn't great? Make me wish we work 4-tens, that would be amazing!

First I wanted to put up some pictures from the weekend that my mom visited us. We had a lot of fun, although it was too short of a visit! She enjoyed seeing our new place and the neighborhood. She also taught me how to make cheese buttons!

1: Rinse all the cream off cottage cheese

2: Dry the curds out in the fridge (overnight)

3: Smile!

4: Make the dough (basically noodle dough)

5: Roll it out super-thin

6: Cut the dough into squares

7: Fill the dough with cheese and press the sides together

8: Ta da!

9: Boil the cheese buttons until the dough is cooked


10: Fry the cheese buttons in butter until lightly browned

11: Serve warm with salt and pepper!
