What to do with Cottage Cheese
I'm an absolute fan of cottage cheese and have been all my life. Cottage cheese is used often in Eastern European recipes, and since my grandmother and mom were full Croatian (immigrating to America at the turn of the 20th century), I grew up with cottage cheese.
So many things can be done with it including making one of THE MOST divine cheesecakes ever! If you've never made my Croatian Cheesecake, well get ready to taste something rustic, chic (I know an oxymoron) and exquisitely delicious!
