Start by whisking the egg yolks with sugar and a portion of softened butter until well combined. Then, mix in the strained cottage cheese, salt, and vanilla powder, continuing to blend for another 8-10 minutes. Gradually incorporate all-purpose flour and the whipped egg whites, folding gently to maintain the airy texture. Shape the mixture into small, flat cakes, dust them with flour, and fry on both sides in butter until golden brown.
