Baked witches' brooms

Ingredients for 9 servings:

• 200 g quark (low-fat quark)
• 250 g flour
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• 7 tbsp milk
• 7 tbsp oil
• ½ tsp salt

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

Combine the quark with oil, milk, and salt. Combine the flour and baking powder and add half of it to the quark mixture. Stir vigorously, then add the other half of the flour and knead the dough thoroughly. Form the broom handles from two-thirds of the dough. Make about nine of them. The remaining dough will be used to create the bottom half of the broom, or brushwood. To do this, flatten the oblong piece and cut it into not-too-thin strips with a knife. Now assemble the brooms and bake at 180°C for about 20 minutes, until golden brown.
