6 –5 inch precooked polish sausage or bratwurst
1 tablespoon Dijon or other favorite mustard

Measure flour into mixing bowl. Cut butter into 1/2 inch sized pieces. Using pastry blender, cut into flour until mixture is pea sized pieces.

Stir in cottage cheese until a stiff dough forms. Add 2 to 3 teaspoons ice water if necessary. Divide into 6 parts.
