For many children, curd is the most favorite product. Therefore, loving parents buy it for their children in supermarkets. After all, it is simply necessary for children to eat cottage cheese, and in the form of a cottage cheese mass, it is the most delicious. But few people thought about preparing the curd mass on their own. In addition to the fact that this process is quite easy, the product turns out to be much healthier and tastier than the purchased one. Try to cook it and see for yourself. And now I will tell you how to do this.
I will not go deeper about how useful cottage cheese is. I'd rather focus on the intricacies of making dessert.
- You can cook curd mass from any curd, but it is better to purchase a purchased product, prefer homemade.
- Butter or sour cream must be added to dry and low-fat cottage cheese - for 450 g of cottage cheese - 100 g of butter.
- In order for the consistency of the mass to come out tender, the cottage cheese must be wiped through a sieve, twisted in a meat grinder, beat with a mixer or grind with a blender. However, if the goal is to obtain a curd mass of a granular consistency, then such processes should not be done. Also, for the tenderness of the product, sugar is replaced with powdered sugar.
- If you want the mass to be sweet and at the same time not too high in calories, then replace sugar with honey, or simply compensate for the sweetness with added fruits or berries.
- Whey is removed from the watery and liquid curd mass. To do this, it is placed under a press.

Cooking curd mass with candied fruits
1. Place the soft butter in a food processor, into which place the “cutter knife” attachment.
2. Whisk the butter until white and add sour cream and sugar to it. If your cottage cheese is dry, then the amount of sour cream can be increased, and if, on the contrary, is too fat, then do not put it at all.
3. Whisk the food until smooth.
4. Add the curd to the food processor.
5. Beat the curd for about 3-5 minutes until smooth and smooth. The mass should not contain any grains, it should be very tender.
