Ingredients:

  • 4 1/2 tsp yeast (2 packets)
  • 1/2 cup warm water
  • 2 cups small curd cottage cheese
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 2 eggs
  • 4 1/2 cups flour
  • 1/2 cup butter

Directions:

  1. Sprinkle yeast into warm water, stir well and set aside for a few minutes to sponge.
  2. While that's working, heat cottage cheese in the microwave (warm to the touch), then combine in a large bowl, with sugar, salt, soda, eggs and ONE cup flour; add yeast-water and beat for TWO minutes.
  3. Add remaining flour-ONE CUP AT A TIME-beating well after each addition.
  4. Sprinkle some extra flour on a table-top, knead dough for 30 seconds, into a SMOOTH ball; set aside.
  5. Preheat oven to 100 (yes, 100) degrees-then turn it OFF; fill a smaller mixing bowl with HOTTEST tap water and place on bottom of oven (under the lowest rack); turn ON the oven LIGHT.
  6. Generously grease a large mixing bowl; then place dough into large greased bowl and twist dough ball around so all of dough has a bit of grease on it; lightly cover bowl with square of plastic wrap.
  7. Place covered bowl in warm oven; let dough rise until DOUBLED.
  8. Melt butter in a shallow bowl; butter THREE pie plates; set aside.
  9. Remove dough from warm spot, place on floured table-top.
  10. Using a sharp knife, divide dough ball in HALF, then each half into half again (for a total of four balls). Divide each of the four balls into SIX smaller portions (24 altogether).
  11. Form each portion into a ball (fold edges snugly into bottom-it's okay to squish them gently), then holding onto that bottom stuff, dip the ball (head first!) into melted butter.
  12. Place EIGHT balls into each pie plate; drizzle leftover butter over the rolls.
  13. Cover each pie plate lightly with plastic, return pans to warm oven (refill the water if necessary); let rise until doubled again.
  14. At end of rise time, remove pans and water bowl from oven; set rolls out of drafty spots-then. . .
  15. Preheat oven to 350; bake pans for 20 minutes (tops will be golden brown).
  16. Serve warm or cooled, with or without butter.
