1/3 cup granulated sugar, 2 egg yolks, 2 tablespoons heavy cream, and 1/2

granulated sugar, and cottage cheese until well con\m bined, about 3
minutes. Add egg yolks and cream; beat well. Stir in raisins and lemon
peel. Preheat oven to 350 F. Lightly greasea 13x9x2" baking pan. Divide
pastry in half. On lightly floured surface, roll out one half of pastry
into a 13x9" rectangle. Fit into bottom of prepared pan. Pour into filling,
spreading evenly. Divide remaining pastry in half. Cut one half into 5
equal pieces. On a board, roll each piece into a pencil-like strip 13"
long. Arrange these strips lengthwise, 1 1/2 " apart on filling. With
remaining pastry, make enough strips to fit diagonally, 1 1/2 inches apart,
across lengthwise strips. Brush pastry strips with egg white. Bake for 40
minutes or until golden brown. Let stand for 5 minutes. Then sprinkle with
confectioner's sugar, and cut into 3 inch squares. Serve warm. (If desired,
make ahead and reheat before serving.) Makes 12 squares. MC formatting by
