- In a large bowl, cream together the eggs and sugar for about 5 minutes. Stir in the cottage cheese, vanilla extract, flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt and mix briefly. Knead in the grated potatoes, cooled butter, and dried cranberries.
- Heat oil to about 350u0b0F in a large, deep pan, or Dutch oven. Carefully place teaspoon sized dollops of batter into the hot oil and fry for about 5 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels. Fill a pastry syringe with the jam and inject about 1 tsp into each fritter. Dust with powdered sugar and serve warm.
