- 2
Add the cold, cubed butter and cut it into the flour mixture using your fingertips or a pastry blender until coarse crumbs form.
Aproximativ 3 min.
Nota bucătarului: Work quickly to keep the butter cold, which helps create a flaky crust.

Form the dough into a disc, wrap it in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Aproximativ 1 min.

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

While the dough chills, prepare the filling by combining the fresh cheese, granulated sugar, egg, egg yolk, flour, and cinnamon in a medium bowl.
