1. 1

   Squeeze the cottage cheese in a towel until quite dry; combine in a bowl or food processor with the sour cream, yolks, granulated sugar, flour, and salt and blend until smooth.

2. 2

   Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to 24 hours.

3. 3

   Preheat a griddle or large skillet over medium-low heat for a couple of minutes; at the same time, preheat the oven to 200F.

4. 4

   Add about 2 tablespoons butter and, when it is hot, begin to shape the dough into 3-inch patties, 1/2 to 1 inch thick.

5. 5

   Add as many patties as will fit comfortably in the pan, then cook until lightly browned on the bottom, 3 to 5 minutes.

6. 6

   Turn and cook until the second side is brown, another 3 to 5 minutes.

7. 7

   Keep the finished cakes warm in the oven while you cook the remainder, adding butter as needed, until they are done; dust with confectioners sugar if you like and serve immediately, with sour cream and jam.
