What a beautiful comment. This was nice to read!
YES, I've made cheesecakes out of cottage cheese and Ricotta Cheese. Ty 💗 💗 💗
That's great, these are so much better options than regular cream cheese.
What a great idea Sasha! I wouldn't have thought of processing cottage cheese in such a way . . . genius! The versatility is endless! Thank you so much for sharing this idea and have a great week!
Thanks so much Hazel! It's true, there's so many different ways to serve this creamy goodness of cottage cheese, the next thing I'd do is to make a creamy salad dressing out of it. Hope you enjoy your summer days, take care!
WOW’ you constantly impress me… going to get on these ASAP
Love these ideas, especially the bruleed bananas and cocoa ones. Will try. Thank you!!
You never disappoint. ❤
Cottage cheese and pineapple is a favorite of mine...yummmm
Hi dear Sasha,wow amazing! I never thought about that. I didn't like the cottage cheese because of the texture but now I know what to do and all thanks to you. Thank you so much as always for creating and sharing the very best recipes with us.
Please take care and have a lovely day. ❤️🌷
Hi there Zahra, thanks so much for your valuable feedback! Actually I didn't know so many people don't like the cottage cheese because of its texture, and when I realized that I just had to find a solution that works. Glad you like the idea and I hope it will help you start loving cottage cheese. Take care and enjoy your summer days! Sending back love!
Thanks for the great ideas!
You're very welcome! Hope you'll give this whip a try.
Wow just amazing 😍🤤👌thank you 🙏☺️
Thanks so much!
I love cottage cheese and im excited to try these easy desserts! Thank u!
Yeah, cottage cheese is a wonderful ingredient, hope you'll enjoy these simple desserts.
Great tip, thank you
Thanks man, glad you like the idea
This was good! Worked really well on top of a bread
Great, thanks for trying it out!
Cottage cheese, sweetner and cinnamon. Whir it up til smooth --- it tastes like cheesecake to me. I've loved it for years
When I first discovered whipped cottage cheese (a few years ago) it was a total game changer. The texture is soft and creamy, but with a little bit of the cottage cheese tang - like a softer version of cream cheese. So tasty!
So true Julie, it's not just about that wonderful creamy texture, but also that distinctive cottage cheese flavor. Sometimes I find it too runny, but that really depends what type of recipe I'm making, but cheesecloth solves that problem.
I am going to try these recipes with rikotta. Thank you Sasha.
That's would be great, have fun and test out flavors for yourself.
Very very delicious 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thanks for checking it out!
Who knew you could take lumpy cottage cheese and make it into a smooth base for so many versatile dishes? Well, Sasha figured it out. I can't wait to give this a try--pudding, desserts, spreads, dips, so many choices. Thank you, Sasha, for sharing your expertise and creativity with us. No oats in this one, but I think we can do without in this one recipe to have another healthy addition to our diets. (And something cool sounds great when we are dealing with temperatures over 110 degrees F! 🥵) Thank you, Sasha. You are truly our 5-star UA-cam creator! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🥰
You know, staying longer time in the kitchen is something that nobody wants these days, so I'm being pushed to be creative:) Thanks so much for your super valuable and inspiring feedback, just love seeing your shiny stars of love and support! No oats in this one, but I think nobody will miss it with these super easy and delicious desserts (and snacks). I just checked out the temperature in Phoenix, it barely goes under 100F during the night, I mean that's crazy hot. Take care and I hope you stay cool.
@@HowToCookSmarter Hi Sasha, Thanks very much for your reply and your concern. Yes, Phoenix has become famous for very warm temperatures but we get out early in the day and are lucky that our air conditioning works very well. I also got away for a girls' vacation in California, so that was a nice break. One of my friends had a hiking vacation in Croatia with her family and had an incredible time. I hope you live closer to the mountains so you can stay cool in the summer heat. And, of course, coming up with recipes that keep us away from the hot stove is also very helpful. Stay well and thanks for all you do!
@@laurenvicker4826 That's great, spending some time out of town, going to the coast and in the mountains really helps during the hot summer days. Speaking of staying cool, I don't live close to the mountains, but I've been exploring nearby parks and lakes to find some relief. Take care and stay well!
šefe svaka čast, mislim da nikome nije palo na pamet zblendati posni sir. def ću isprobati recepte😀
Hvala na podršci! Da, super jednostavna stvar, a svašta se da napraviti od ove kremaste baze.
Pa hvala ti Saša,nikad se ne bih setila🥰idem sad da pravim sladoled😂
Hej Tamara, drago mi je da ti se sviđa ideja, ja ću slijedeće probati napraviti umak za tjesteninu, nešto kao Alfredo pasta. Sretno sa sladoledom, javi kako je prošlo.
Hi! Can you please make more biscuit/cookie recipes? Thank you so much, your recipes are the best
Thanks for your feedback, yes there will be more recipes of this kind in the future.
Merci
You're very welcome!
Useful info, nutritionally it's a winner and it's only the texture we don't like ! Thanks!
I like cottage cheese, even the grainy texture, but this is a whole new level of eating experience I would say.
@@HowToCookSmarter I'll try it certainly, I'll be happy to eat a huge chunk of cheese cake !!
I have no idea why this never occurred to me before- what a game changer!
Definitely a healthy eating hack:) Hope it's going to work for you.
Great recipes as usual 🌟. I'm listening to your accent I couldn't work out where you're from 😊, but then I heard a similar accent from "Vargas Stories", and I saw he was from Serbia and I thought it may be same country turns out it's Croatia. 😊 Very nice accents 🌟🌟.
You're right, people from this part of Europe, we all have similar English accent. Thanks for your kind feedback and I'm glad you enjoy the recipes.
curious how long it would last in the fridge if you whipped the whole container once to use for a week?
A good alternative would be quark. It is ready, smooth, and you can skip the processing step.😉
A good alternative if you like sour cream which I do not! But also good for people to know, tfs
Sure, that would be a nice option too.
Those are great recipes, now only if cottage cheese wasn't expensive where I live...
You can use some other low fat cheese like ricotta or quark to make these desserts too.
Love these recipes! How come you don’t use cream cheese?
Cottage cheese is higher in protein, an alternative
Just love the cottage cheese nutrition profile more.
THANK YOU SASHA 😂🎉
You're so welcome Michele! Hope you enjoy your summer days!
Can I use coconut yogurt
Sure, I guess it's thick enough.
You won't believe this but cranberry sauce in cottage cheese is better than ice cream. It doesn't something cutting through each other with the tartness. You have to put something else sweet in there but it doesn't really matter what. I actually like pineapple in with it.
Whats the difference between doing this and just eating greek yogurt instead obvs more so the deserts
Hi! It's just a better way to enjoy cottage cheese, and add more protein to your diet.
What is the difference to just using cream cheese? I'm not going to get a food processor dirty (those things are notoriously fiddly to clean) when I can simply smear cream cheese on my bread instead.
As for the pudding like deserts: I mix cream cheese and plain yogurt instead. You can do that just by stirring with a fork, no food processor needed. Best when the yogurt container is half empty anyway, just pop in the cream cheese and stir - done. And no extra dirty dish or machine.
You can mix in cocoa powder, or vanilla sugar, or peanut butter or whatever you like. Personally, I like the cream cheese + yogurt + peanut butter version the best. Top with raspberries, a sprinkle of oats (or a crumbled cookie), put some cinnamon and honey on top - yum.
Sure, you can do that too, just find a better nutrition this way, and actually a more delicious way to enjoy cottage cheese.
Where is Sasha from ?
Croatia I believe
Hi I'm from Croatia, Europe.
Don't hate it im just trying
Hope this will make you love your cottage cheese a bit more.
@@HowToCookSmarter yes for sure . I'm already like cottage cheese pancakes with water for the batter , i want to try cottage cheese ICE cream too 😉👍🏾
@@luanamariejoseph That's great news, love the idea of making a cottage cheese ice cream.
@@HowToCookSmarter me too
The only cottage cheese I could find in my area are salty :(
I do basically the same deserts by mixing cream cheese and plain yogurt, you could try that instead. Extra tip: mix in a bit of peanut butter, it's so yummy.
If you have a Trader Joe's in your area, they carry a cottage cheese that has less sodium. That was my complaint as well about cottage cheese....too salty. Also Whole Foods carries one that has less salt.
I guess it's not that salty you won't be able to turn it into a dessert. Try with chocolate version, you know that adding some salt to chocolate desserts is fairly popular.
Make mayonnaise out of this
That's a good one.
