Cheese sticks with seeds and fresh cheese

 We have tried lots of cheese stick reciped but this one was a winnter. You need less flour because of the fresh cheese and it gives the dough a very nice taste. You don't have to wait until the dough raises because it doesn't contain any yeast. It is a very quick recipe, the only trick is that you have to be patient until the dough sets, but once you are done with that, you only need to sprinkle the seeds and the cheese on it, cut it up and put it in the oven :)
Ingredients: 
  • half a kg of plain flour
  • half a kg of fresh cheese
  • 3-4 teaspoons of salt
  • 30 dkgs of cheese
  • 1 egg
  • 25 dkg of margarine
  • sesame seeds, sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds for the top
  • grated cheese for the top
  • 1 egg for egg wash

Rub the margarine in the flour until it resembles breadcrumbs and then add the fresh cheese. Add the 30 dkgs of cheese, the egg and the salt. Knead the dough until it sets and it becomes a flexible, easy to handle dough. Let is rest for a while, meanwhile sprinkle some flour onto the table. Get your rolling pin and roll your dough until it's 5 mms thick. Give it an egg wash and sprinkle the seeds and the cheese. Cut it up, place the bits on an oven pan (lay some baking paper under it first) and put it in the oven at 180 deg Celsius for 15 minutes until they become golden. Let is cool completely, that's when it tastes the better.
