Turn the Easter mold upside down, place it in a bowl, and line it with a double layer of cheesecloth, letting the edges hang over. Put the cottage cheese mixture into the mold, cover with the overhanging cheesecloth, place a weight on top (a small plate and a jar filled with water), and refrigerate for 10–12 hours. Drain the whey from the plate as needed.
