++++ Sprinkle the yeast over the warm water and let stand 5 minutes. Gently stir to
completely dissolve. With an electric mixer, blend the softened yeast into the cottage
cheese, sugar, salt and egg. Add the flour in 1/2 cup portions to form a stiff but light dough
and let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk. Butter a 1 1/2 quart casserole dish and
stir the dough down, then add 1 cup of the grated cheddar cheese. Turn into the buttered
dish. Let rise 30 to 40 minutes longer or until almost doubled in size. Preheat the oven to
350 degrees F. and bake for 40 to 50 minutes or until golden brown. Brush the top with
butter.
