Preheat your oven to 360 degrees F and grease a 9-inch springform cake tin with cooking spray. Dust with flour, and tap to remove any excess. Set aside.

Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt then set aside.

In a mixing bowl, combine the egg yolks and 1 ounce of sugar. Whisk for roughly 5 minutes until pale and light.

Add the cottage cheese and beat until evenly incorporated.

Fold in the sifted flour mixture into your egg yolk-cheese mixture until evenly incorporated. Set aside.

In another mixing bowl beat the egg whites until soft peaks.

Gradually add the remaining sugar while beating the egg whites.

Fold in the meringue, followed by all the berries, into your cheese mixture until evenly incorporated.

Pour into your dusted cake tin and lightly tap to remove any excess air.

Bake for roughly 45 minutes until a cake tester comes out clean.

Once baked, allow the cake to cool down completely while at room temperature. The cake will deflate as it cools down and it is alright.

Once cool, remove the springform brace. You can either serve it at room temperature or chill then serve. Portion accordingly!
