Sirniki

This is a fried cheese dessert from Russia.

Makes about 10 cakes

Crumble the cheese in a colander. Press until somewhat dry. Place the cheese, flour, yolks, sugar, and salt in a food processor bowl. Pulse until a dough forms. Shape into a 3-inch thick cylinder. Wrap with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Heat the butter in a skillet. Cut the dough into 3/4-inch slices. Fry on both sides until brown. Serve garnished with powdered sugar, sour cream, and preserves.
