Preparation procedure

Preparing the batter: In a bowl, beat the softened butter with the sugar until frothy. Then add the eggs, cottage cheese, pudding powder and the flour mixed with baking powder. Mix everything thoroughly until a smooth batter forms.
Preparing the pan: Grease the muffin tin with oil and place it in the refrigerator for a while – the batter will not stick then.
Filling the muffin cups: Fill the batter into the muffin cups to about 3/4 full.
Baking: Bake in a preheated oven at 160 °C for approximately 40 minutes, until the muffins turn golden.

To enhance the flavor you can stir chopped chocolate, cherries, blueberries or raisins into the batter. They are also great with a bit of cinnamon or chopped nuts. You can customize these muffins according to your own preferences!
