At this time, prepare fill. For this purpose, a high capacity of about 3.5 liters, mix until smooth with the usual mixer beaters need a prescription amount of cottage cheese, sour cream, sugar, lemon juice, starch, eggs and spices. Turn the mixer on low speed at first (to avoid splashing ingredients), and then increase it.

HELPFUL ADVICE

If you want to test the layers and filling in the finished cake were thicker, use a smaller form than specified in the recipe, for example, a small aluminum pan (size 17,5 × 27,5 cm, height 4 cm.). But I still prefer the proposed option below.
