Mix the flour with the semolina (you can replace it with semolina), room temperature butter, sugar (70g) and yolks.

2. Stage

Add the water and knead the dough into an oval shape. Wrap in clingfilm and leave in the refrigerator for at least an hour.

3. Stage

While the dough is resting, prepare the filling. Mix the ricotta with the sugar, coffee and cardamom. I used ready-made ricotta, but you can also make it. In the morning put a packet of kefir in the freezer. In the evening take out the frozen kefir, remove the package and put the frozen briquette in a colander. Leave at room temperature overnight. In the morning you will have ricotta as good as store-bought.

Cut the rested dough into plates of about 1 cm.
