1. Preheat the Oven:

• Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
• Lightly grease a baking dish or line it with parchment paper.

2. Prepare the Eggs:

• Separate the egg yolks and whites. Set the whites aside in a clean bowl for whipping later.

3. Create the Cottage Cheese Base:

• In a large bowl, combine cottage cheese, egg yolks, vanilla sugar, and regular sugar. Blend using a hand mixer or whisk until smooth.

4. Add Creaminess and Texture:

• Stir in the sour cream (or natural yogurt), then gradually mix in the corn starch and salt. Make sure the mixture is lump-free.

5. Whip the Egg Whites:

• Beat the egg whites in a separate bowl until stiff peaks form. This will make your dessert light and airy.

6. Fold in the Egg Whites:

• Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the cottage cheese mixture using a spatula. Be careful not to overmix to retain the fluffiness.

7. Add Toppings:

• Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with coconut flakes and almond flakes (if using) for added crunch and flavor.

8. Bake:

• Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, or until the top is golden and the center is set.

9. Cool and Serve:

• Let the dessert cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm for a comforting breakfast or chilled for a refreshing treat.
