Description

Soft and tender dumplings with a sweet cheese filling - a simple recipe for a well-known dish. These are very tasty homemade dumplings, and if you don't want a sweet version, you can always make a savory filling. In that case, instead of sugar, add salt and herbs to the cheese.

Instructions

Pour vegetable oil into the boiling water and add the heavy cream, stirring until it melts.
Add the sifted flour and salt, then mix. Beat in one chicken egg and knead the dough. The amount of flour specified in the ingredients is an approximate quantity. Since the gluten content can vary in flour, you may need slightly more or less.
For the filling, mash the cheese with a fork, then add an egg, granulated sugar, and vanilla sugar.
Place the dough on a floured surface.
Roll it out thinly and cut out circles using a glass or a special cutter.
Place a teaspoon of the filling in the center of each circle.
Boil the dumplings until they float to the surface, which usually takes about 4-5 minutes.
Serve the tender cheese dumplings hot with sour cream. Enjoy!
