Pogacele cu seminte si branza

These tasty snacks are so easy to make. Here is the recipe in the Romanian language: Pogacele cu seminte

350 g flour, 300 g of cottage cheese, 250 g butter minimum 82%, 50 g pork fat, 100 g cheddar, 100 g sunflower seeds, 100 g pumpkin seeds, 2 teaspoons salt, 1 egg for decoration

Cut the butter into cubes and mix it with cottage cheese and pork fat. Add salt. Finally add the flour in 3-4 batches. The dough will be extremely sticky, but it's no problem. Transfer the dough in the fridge for cold 1-2 days.
Stretch the dough until you get a sheet of about 40 × 30. Use a lot of flour so the dough doesn't stick. Sprinkle the cheddar and the seeds over the dough.
Fold the dough sideways and then top and bottom.
Stretch the dough again until you get a sheet of about 30x35 cm with a thickness of around 6-7mm.
Cut the dough into squares, grease the surface with the beaten egg, sprinkle with black sesame seeds. Place the squares on a baking sheet and bake them in the over for 15-20 minutes at 170C.
