04 - In a separate bowl, whisk together egg yolks, blended cottage cheese, cornstarch, powdered sweetener, vanilla extract, and lemon zest until homogenous.

07 - Scoop 1/4 cup mounds of batter onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each mound.
08 - Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until puffed, golden brown, and firm to the touch.
