PARMESAN CRESCENT ROLLS

2 C. all-purpose flour
2 C. cottage cheese
3/4 C. butter, softened
1/2 tsp. salt
1 C. grated Parmesan cheese

Combine flour, cottage cheese, butter and salt in a large bowl and mix well. Divide into 4 equal portions. Wrap each portion in plastic wrap. Chill dough for 2-12 hours. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Roll each potion of dough into an 8-inch circle on a floured work surface. Sprinkle each of the circles with 1/4 C. Parmesan. Cut each circle into 8 triangles. Roll up each triangle into a crescent, starting at the outside edge. Pinch the seams to seal. Arrange crescents on baking sheets. Bake until browned, about 18 to 20 minutes. Serve immediately.

VARIATION: Mix 1 tsp. chopped cooked bacon with the Parmesan before sprinkling on each circle of dough.
