Topfenknödel

Step 1/7

• ½ kg quark

Smooth out quark by mixing it. (I used quark that has 10% fat.)

Step 2/7

• 230 g flour
• 1 egg
• 1 pinch salt
• 30 g butter

Stir in flour, egg, salt and butter to create a dough. It shouldn't be sticky so if it is add more flour.

Step 3/7

Roll it into a line of 5-6cm diameter. Then cut into 1cm pieces.

Step 4/7

Take the 1cm piece roll it into ball and then press it flat. Put a filling of your choice, for example nougat or strawberry. Then roll into a ball again. Repeat this with the remaining dough.

Step 5/7

Fill a big pot with water and bring it to boil. Add the formed knödels (you can do this in batches) and cook until they float. Then wait about 1 minute before taking them out.

Step 6/7

• 50 g breadcrumbs
• 25 g butter
• 25 g icing sugar

In the meantime heat up butter on a pan. Then add in breadcrumbs and icing sugar and mix.
