This recipe is an unusual but delicious way to use cottage cheese. Friends of ours make these every year for a party that follows our fall cattle drive. They are so delicious they're always the first food to disappear.

2 cups all-purpose flour
Dash salt
FROSTING:
2 cups confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons butter, melted
