Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Blend the cottage cheese until smooth. Incorporate egg yolks, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and optional sweeteners.
  3. Vigorously beat the egg whites with cream of tartar until stiff peaks form, about 3-5 minutes.
  4. Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the cottage cheese mixture in three additions.
