Hungarian Cottage Cheese Dumplings (Túrógombóc)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, semolina, sugar, vanilla, and salt.
  2. Mix well, cover, and refrigerate for 30–60 minutes so the semolina can absorb the moisture.
  3. With slightly wet hands, shape the mixture into small, round dumplings.
  4. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a gentle boil. Carefully add the dumplings.
  5. Cook for about 8–10 minutes. When they float to the surface, continue cooking for another 2–3 minutes.
  6. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a skillet. Add the breadcrumbs and toast over medium heat until golden.
  7. Stir in the sugar and remove from the heat.
  8. Remove the cooked dumplings with a slotted spoon and gently roll them in the toasted breadcrumbs.
  9. Serve warm with sour cream and powdered sugar. 🇭🇺❤️
