Ingredients:

400gr quark or pressed cottage cheese

200gr cold butter (grated on a medium or a large side of the grater)

1/2 cup sugar

1/2 tsp of baking soda 

pinch of salt 

2 cups of all purpose flour 

Additional melted butter and sugar for shaping

Instructions:

Combine everything.  Knead until the dough is soft.  Cover with plastic wrap and leave in the fridge for 30 min.  

Preheat the oven to 350 F.  Roll the dough to 1/4 inch height and cut with a circular mold.  Brush the circles with melted butter and press them into sugar.  Fold once into a semicircle.  Fold again into a into triangle.  Move onto a cookie sheet leaving space between the cookies to expand.  Slightly cut the triangle's widest side into thirds so they look more like duck feet.* 

Bake for 15-25 minutes until golden brown.  For a softer cookie, let rest for 10 minutes after removing from the oven and transfer immediately to an airtight container.  For a crumblier and harder cookies, take from the oven and let cool.  These are best tasting when they are warm right from the oven.
