Preparation
Preparing the Batter
Mix cheese and wet ingredients
Combine the farmers cheese, eggs, sweetened condensed milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
Add flour
Gradually add the flour, mixing gently until a smooth dough forms.
Shape dough
Sprinkle a clean countertop with flour, turn the dough out onto it, roll into a log, and cut into slices.
Forming the Sirniki
Form patties
Shape each slice into a small patty, about 1/2-inch thick.
Dust with flour
Lightly dust each patty with flour to prevent sticking.
Chill patties
Set aside on a floured surface.
Chill the patties in the fridge for 10 minutes before cooking to help them hold their shape.
