In a large mixing bowl, cream together 200g softened butter and 100g sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes using an electric mixer.
Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, salt, cocoa powder, and baking powder.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms.
Divide the dough into two portions: ⅔ for the base and ⅓ for the topping.
Press the larger portion into the bottom of a 9×13 inch (23×33 cm) baking pan lined with parchment paper.
Creating the Filling
If using wet cottage cheese, drain it through a fine-mesh strainer for 30 minutes.
In a large bowl, combine cottage cheese and sugar, mixing until well blended.
Beat in eggs one at a time until smooth.
Add cornstarch and melted butter, mixing until fully incorporated.
Gently fold in the chopped peaches.
