Cut the chocolate into small cubes. Rub the cottage cheese through a sieve or punch it with a blender. Divide 2 eggs into whites and yolks, put the whites in the refrigerator, they will be needed for preparing the glaze.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine the remaining eggs and yolks with regular and vanilla sugar and beat with a mixer. Add cottage cheese and lemon juice and mix with a mixer until smooth.

Prepare the frosting for the red velvet cake. Pour the egg whites into the bowl and beat with a mixer until stiff, 3 minutes. Add powdered sugar and continue beating until a thick, plastic glaze forms, another 3-5 minutes.
