In a large bowl, mix the cottage cheese, eggs, flour, baking powder, and sweetener until a soft, smooth dough forms. It should be firm and easy to handle, not sticky.

Add the poppy seeds to a small saucepan with enough water to cover them. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Drain thoroughly, then blend with the sweetener, lemon zest, and milk until you have a thick, spreadable filling.

Roll the dough into a large rectangle and spread the poppy seed filling evenly over the surface.

Cut the dough into long strips, then roll each strip into a swirl.
