Ingredients
  • 2 package Active dry yeast
  • 1/2 cup Lukewarm water
  • 2 cup Cream-style cottage cheese
  • 1/4 cup Sugar
  • 2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking soda
  • 2 Eggs
  • 4 1/2 cup Flour (approximately)
Directions
  1. 1
    Sprinkle the active dry yeast over the lukewarm water in a small bowl.
  2. 2
    Stir gently until the yeast is fully dissolved and let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  3. 3
    Heat the cottage cheese in a microwave or saucepan until it is just lukewarm, then drain any excess liquid.
  4. 4
    In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm cottage cheese, sugar, salt, baking soda, eggs, yeast mixture, and 1 cup of flour.
  5. 5
    Beat the mixture with an electric mixer on medium speed for about 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally, until smooth.
  6. 6
    Gradually add the remaining flour, one half cup at a time, mixing until the dough pulls away cleanly from the sides of the bowl and forms a soft, slightly sticky ball.
  7. 7
    Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead briefly for 1-2 minutes until smooth.
  8. 8
    Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, turning once to coat the top with grease.
  9. 9
    Cover the bowl with a damp cloth or plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 1/2 hours, or until doubled in size.
  10. 10
    Preheat the oven to 350&# 194;°F (175ðC) and grease two 9-inch round baking pans.
  11. 11
    Punch down the risen dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface.
  12. 12
    Divide the dough into 24 equal pieces.
  13. 13
    Shape each piece into a smooth ball by tucking the edges underneath.
  14. 14
    Place the balls into the prepared pans, arranging them in concentric circles or rows.
  15. 15
    Cover the pans loosely and let the rolls rise again for 30-45 minutes, or until they have doubled in size and are touching.
  16. 16
    Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped.
  17. 17
    Remove the rolls from the oven and immediately turn them out onto wire racks to cool.
  18. 18
    Serve warm.
