Two ladles full of cottage cheese. Mash the cheese fine with a spoon, six eggs, beat the whites and yolks separately, mix the yolks in first and then the whites, one pint of cream or a little less, half a nutmeg or a little more, cinnamon to suit taste, but enough to make the mixture rather brown, sugar to taste, brandy, a good quantity. Say about half a teacupful. Cover the bottom and sides of a square oblong baking pan with the dough, which ought to be quite thin. Pour the concoction into the dough and bake until brown. Let it stand until it becomes firm. Then cut in squares.
