Cheesecake for Easter without baking
Description
I found this no-bake Easter cottage cheese cake recipe from my friend. Before, I thought Easter baking required lots of eggs and butter, so I never dared to make traditional Easter cakes. But this cottage cheese version doesn't need baking at all, turns out delicious, and requires fewer ingredients—for example, no eggs at all. So if you'd like to treat your guests to something tasty but are afraid to make authentic Easter cakes, go ahead and prepare this cottage cheese Easter dessert.
