To Make Chease Loaves
Take the Curds of a tender new milk Cheese, and let them be well pressed from the whey, and then break them as small as you can possible, then take Crumes of Manchet, and yolkes of Eggs, with half the whites, and some sweet Cream, and a little fine flower, mingle all these together, and make a paste of it, but not too stiffe, then make them into little loaves and bake them, when they be baked, cut off the tops and butter them; with Sugar, Nutmeg, and melted Butter, and put it in with a spoon, and stirre it altogether, then lay on the tops, and seare them with scraped Sugar.

Steps

1. Mix cottage cheese, bread crumbs, eggs, cream & flour. Put it into a deep baking dish. Cook for 1 hr at 350°.
2. Remove from oven. Slice the top off. Remove the interior of the cheese bread into a bowl. Add butter, sugar & nutmeg to stuffing. Put the stuffing back in. Replace the lid. Brush with butter & sprinkle sugar on top. Put back in oven for a few minutes (5). Serve it forth.
