3. Mix well. 4. Now take a mold, grease it with cream and form small balls from the prepared mass and place them in the mold. (I rolled them a little in flour, otherwise I couldn’t form a ball)
5. Bake in an oven preheated to 180*C for 10-15 minutes. 6. Meanwhile, prepare the filling: grate the cheese on a fine grater, squeeze in the garlic and mix with cream. Now remove the pan from the oven, pour the filling over each ball and place in the oven for another 15-20 minutes.
