Discover the secret to making amazing "Lapti" vatrushki using a never-fail Khrushchev-era dough recipe! These vatrushki will not only delight you with their delicate taste and aroma but also surprise you with their unusual shape, reminiscent of old bast shoes. They are the perfect treat for tea time or a festive table, transporting you to an atmosphere of cozy warmth and home comfort.

Begin with the magic of the dough: combine the yeast with salt (if using fresh yeast, rub it together with the salt), then add milk, flour, sugar, and softened butter. Knead a tender, light dough that quickly stops sticking to your hands. Place it in a container and refrigerate for 4 hours. After chilling, remove the dough, let it warm up slightly, roll it into a sheet, and cut it into strips. Weave an elegant lattice from these strips on parchment paper.

Create a unique template for a "bast shoe" from A4 paper. Prepare a delicate cottage cheese filling: blend cottage cheese, a chicken egg, and sugar until smooth, then add raisins and vanilla, gently mix with a spoon.

Place the paper template on the woven dough lattice, carefully cut along the outline, and gently lift the edges to form the base for the vatrushka.

Insert a small partition to create an oval indentation, which will later be filled with a fragrant curd filling.

Carefully flip the tongue, supporting the parchment paper, so that the mesh remains flat and retains its shape.

Carefully tuck the excess dough under the "foot" or trim it. Shape the product as desired. Create a beautiful border along the edge, brush it with egg yolk, and brush the remaining surface with milk for a golden crust.

Bake these wonderful vatrushki at 200-210°C until golden brown and cooked through. Enjoy this delicious treat!
