From Linda Cicero's Cook's Corner

BREAD

COTTAGE CHEESE BREAD

1 envelope dry yeast

1 tablespoon butter or margarine

1 cup cottage cheese

1/4 cup sugar

1 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1 egg, beaten

About 2 ½ cups flour

Dissolve yeast in 1/4 cup very warm (110-degree) water. In a small saucepan, heat the butter and cottage cheese over low just until the butter melts and mixture is warm but not hot to the touch. Remove from heat and stir in the sugar, salt, soda and egg. Blend in yeast mixture.

Measure flour into a large bowl, pour the cheese mixture into the center and mix well. Add more flour if it seems sticky. Turn out onto a floured surface and knead until smooth. Place in a buttered bowl, cover and let rise until doubled.

Punch down, knead briefly and shape into two loaves. Place in 2 greased 9-by-5-inch loaf pans, cover and let double again. Heat oven to 350 degrees.

Bake about 35 minutes. Makes 2 loaves (16 slices).
