Name: Cottage Butterhorns
Prep time: 45 min
Cook time: 25 min
Total time: 1 h 10 min
Yield: 3 dozen.
Ingredients: 1 cup butter, softened; 1-1/2 cups 4% small-curd cottage cheese; 2 cups all-purpose flour; 1/2 teaspoon salt; GLAZE:; 3 tablespoons butter; 1 cup confectioners' sugar; 3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract; 1 to 2 tablespoons water

Start the dough for these attractive crescents the night before, and you’ll have rich, flaky golden rolls the next morning to enjoy with your coffee. A sweet drizzle makes the buttery rolls hard to resist.—Mary Schmittinger, Colgate, Wisconsin

Ingredients

1 cup butter, softened
1-1/2 cups 4% small-curd cottage cheese
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
GLAZE:
3 tablespoons butter
1 cup confectioners' sugar
3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 to 2 tablespoons water

Directions

In a large bowl, beat butter and cottage cheese until blended. Combine flour and salt; gradually beat into the butter mixture. Cover and refrigerate overnight or until dough is easy to handle.
Divide dough into thirds. On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into a 10-in. circle. Cut each circle into 12 wedges. Roll up wedges from the wide ends and place point side down 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on pans on wire racks.
For glaze, in a small saucepan, melt butter. Stir in the confectioner's sugar, vanilla and enough water to achieve desired consistency. Drizzle over rolls.

Amazing! Will be making these again. I also made 24 instead of 36. Totally going to play with the glaze flavor next time...maybe lemon? orange? Yum!

Quick, easy and very tasty. I made 24 instead of the amount indicated, cutting 8 wedges from each of the 3 dough pieces.
