Why not try cottage cheese jelly? Thanks to this delicate dish, the evening you organized will be remembered by your guests for a long time. We offer several simple recipes that are very easy to master.
Jelly from milk and cottage cheese
This is the most primitive and easy recipe.This curd jelly is more suitable for an everyday menu than for a holiday. It can be prepared as a reward for good grades for your child or, forgetting about calories, to pamper yourself. Ingredients:
- curd mass - 100 grams
- one large spoonful of gelatin
- 200 grams of pasteurized milk
- sugar - two tablespoons
Method of preparation:Place a saucepan with milk on low heat, add granulated sugar, stir thoroughly with a spoon and heat until bubbles appear. Then immediately turn off the burner. Now add the specified amount of instant gelatin to the same mixture, stir and put in the refrigerator. When the milk-gelatin mass sets, add the cottage cheese and beat everything with a mixer or blender. This way the jelly will be more airy. Place it in small cups or special bowls and put in the refrigerator for several hours. Before serving, you can decorate with fresh mint leaves or pieces of fruit. Enjoy!
Chocolate — curd jelly
This curd jelly can be made in one color,if you mix all the ingredients, or pour in white and brown layers. In the second case, the dessert will look much more interesting and even more appetizing. Ingredients:
- 25 grams of gelatin
- 100 grams of low-fat cream (we recommend taking 10%)
- 400 grams of dietary curd
- the same amount of sour cream
- six tablespoons of sugar
- cocoa powder - four tablespoons
Method of preparation:Usually, gelatin for jelly is soaked in cool water, but according to this recipe, it needs to be done in cream. By the way, if you don’t have this product, use pasteurized milk. When the gelatin increases in size (after about half an hour), place the mixture in a double boiler and stir constantly until this ingredient is completely dissolved. However, you shouldn’t bring it to a boil — just turn the heat down to low. After dissolving, let the mixture cool. Meanwhile, rub the sugar and cottage cheese with a fork. It’s best to pass the latter through a sieve in advance, then you won’t have lumps and the dessert will be very tender. Then add the amount of sour cream specified in the recipe, pour in the mixture with gelatin and stir several times. If you’re making single-color jelly, now’s the time to add cocoa and then spread the finished mass into molds. However, if you’ve decided to make a striped dessert, you need to act a little differently. Divide the resulting mixture into two equal parts (to do this, pour it into different bowls). Add cocoa powder to one and mix well. Now lay out the first layer of white curd-sour cream mass, then chocolate, and so on in the same sequence. Then put everything in the refrigerator, and in two or three hours you will be able to enjoy an appetizing dessert. If you are preparing to receive guests, you can decorate it with chocolate sauce, sprinkle with coconut flakes or ground walnuts, almonds or other nuts.
Jelly from cottage cheese with pineapple
Jelly is prepared from various products:from kefir or milk, fruit juice or sour milk, even from white and red wine. Of course, the fastest option is a powdered dessert, which you just need to pour out of a bag, add water, stir a couple of times and that's it - the preparation is complete. We suggest making a dish from low-fat cottage cheese, the delicate taste of which will be complemented by canned pineapples. Ingredients:
- two glasses of low-fat sour cream
- dietary curd - 400 grams
- a cup of powdered sugar
- several rings of canned pineapple
- a glass of boiled water
- one packing of gelatin
- 25 grams of flavored cocoa
Method of preparation:First of all, let's note that this jelly does not necessarily have to be made from canned pineapples. If you want, use fresh ones. In addition, they can be safely replaced, or even better - supplemented with other fruits. Peaches, juicy oranges or bananas are suitable for this. Turn on your imagination! So, when you start cooking, pour lukewarm water over the instant gelatin and put it on low heat. Remember to stir regularly, keep it on the stove until the product dissolves, then remove the mixture from the stove and let it cool. Drain the unnecessary syrup from the pineapples and cut into medium cubes, then place them on the bottom of the bowls or cups in which you plan to serve the dessert. Do not put too little fruit, no need to be greedy! The dish should have not a subtle, but a noticeable curd-pineapple taste. Now mix the dietary cottage cheese, sour cream and powdered sugar in one bowl. The latter, of course, can be replaced with regular sugar, but its disadvantage is that it dissolves poorly, so the resulting mass will have to be kneaded for a long time. By the way, as for the cottage cheese, we recommend grinding it through a sieve beforehand - then the dessert will turn out incredibly airy. So, send the gelatin to the previous products and mix everything thoroughly. Then halve the finished mixture: pour one part into molds, and pour cocoa into the other and, stirring well, pour into the molds. The dish should freeze, this will take about three hours. After this time, take the dessert out of the refrigerator, garnish with mint and call everyone to the table.
Jelly «Bilberry»
The combination of blueberries and cottage cheese is a real treata taste extravaganza, and if they are also found in an appetizing dessert, then no one will refuse such a dish. Try it! The listed products will be enough to prepare four servings. Ingredients:
- 200 grams of cottage cheese
- 200 milliliters of ordinary cream
- a glass of orange juice (preferably if it is freshly squeezed)
- 50 grams of brown sugar
- 12 grams of gelatin
- fresh blueberries, as well as raspberries - 150 grams each
Method of preparation:Half an hour before cooking, soak the gelatin by pouring cold water over it. Then heat the mixture over a fire until the product dissolves (you can put the bowl with it in the microwave). Some housewives mix all the ingredients with a special whisk, but this way you will not achieve the desired effect. Therefore, we suggest putting low-fat cottage cheese, as well as orange juice and sugar in a blender and whisking until smooth. After that, add a third of the resulting portion of gelatin and cream. Mix everything a couple more times and pour into bowls. Put it in the refrigerator on the very top shelf. Now mash the blueberries with a fork or mixer until puree and combine it with 1/3 of the gelatin. Grind fresh raspberries in the same way and mix with the remaining jelly thickener. When the curd mixture has set a little, pour the raspberry mixture into the bowl, and after fifteen minutes, the blueberry mixture. Cover with cling film and refrigerate for at least four hours. Fresh berries or whipped cream are good garnishes for this dish.

Yogurt can be consumed not only as a separate product, but also added to various dishes. Some make cakes, others ice cream, and we recommend trying jelly. Ingredients:

- 200 grams of curd mass

- two glasses (about 250 grams) of yogurt of any taste (we used strawberry)
Method of preparation:As usual, pour water over the gelatin and let it sit for a while. Then heat the mixture on the stove, and when it starts to boil, remove it and leave it to cool. In order not to waste time, grind the cottage cheese, previously passed through a sieve, with sugar, then add yogurt, low-fat cream and finally gelatin. Mix everything well with a spoon and pour into molds. The jelly mixture can be served not only in individual bowls, but also in pieces on plates. To do this, cover the bottom of a deep bowl with special cling film (then the dish will be easier to take out), and then pour in the cottage cheese and yogurt mixture. When it has hardened enough, cut it with a knife. To decorate, pour fruit sauce or jam over the dessert.
