No-bake cheesecake with cottage cheese, cookies and gelatin

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 3 hr 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make no-bake cheesecake with cottage cheese? First make the base. Choose the simplest cookies for her, according to your taste. I took the baked milk flavor. Grind it into crumbs in a blender or with a rolling pin, placing it in a bag.

2. STEP 2

   

   Place the crumbs in a bowl and add the melted butter. Mix everything thoroughly until smooth.

3. STEP 3

   

   Place the crumbs into a round baking dish like a crust. Take it well. If the mold is not detachable, like mine, then cover it with cling film to make it easier to remove the finished cheesecake. Place the cake in the freezer for 30 minutes.

4. STEP 4

   

   Pre-soak the gelatin in 100 ml of cold water (about 0.5 cup) for 30 minutes. Just as the cake sits, it will swell.

5. STEP 5

   

   For the mousse, mix cottage cheese in a deep bowl (it is better to take cottage cheese that is not dry, not grainy, soft, not too wet, with a fat content of 5-9% or homemade, from the market), sour cream and sugar. Blend them with an immersion blender into a homogeneous airy mass.

6. STEP 6

   

   Dissolve 2/3 of the swollen gelatin in 120 ml of hot water.

7. STEP 7

   

   Pour the warm gelatin mass into the curd mixture and stir.

8. STEP 8

   

   Remove the frozen crust from the freezer. Pour curd mousse onto it.

9. STEP 9

   

   Cover the cheesecake with cling film and refrigerate for 1.5 hours to set.

10. STEP 10

    

    For pouring juice, take a rich color: cherry, orange, pomegranate. I had an apple one, which wasn’t very bright, so I added some mild strawberry jam to it without berries. Heat the juice until it is hot and dilute the remaining gelatin in it

11. STEP 11

    

    Pour the juice over the frozen mousse and place in the refrigerator for 1 hour.

12. STEP 12

    

    Remove the cheesecake with cookies and gelatin from the mold, first separating it from the walls with a knife. Decorate the top as you wish.

Thanks to the author for the recipe! But having arranged an experiment, I want to note that you don’t need to put it in the freezer for the same amount of time, just put it in the refrigerator at a temperature of 3-5 degrees, everything freezes 👌. And I don't like too much sugar.

A very tasty no-bake cheesecake with cottage cheese, but for a 26 cm pan I took 1.5 times more ingredients. I added vanillin to the cottage cheese. I took anniversary cookies. The top filling in the first one was made from baby fruit puree, and in the second I decorated it with icing (chocolate, cream) with nuts.

I made a cheesecake with cookies and gelatin using this recipe for the first time in my life, it was very tasty, the whole family loved it! I’m making it a second time, a double batch, on one I’ll pour fruit jelly on top, on the second I’ll make chocolate-nut glaze!

Hello, I want to cook, but I can’t figure out what size pan is suitable. What diameter mold do you have?

Great recipe. I made two versions with dela and with bananas. For one I added grated banana to the cookies.
