INGREDIENTS
- 250 g (8 oz) low-fat cottage cheese, sieved
- Artificial sweetener, to taste
- 150 ml (1/4 pint) natural yogurt
- 2 egg whites
- 1 tablespoon brandy
TO DECORATE:
- Tiny fresh vine leaves (if available)
- Small clusters of black grapes
INSTRUCTIONS
1 Mix the cottage cheese with a little sweetener to taste (if you don’t have a very sweet tooth, this may not be necessary). Blend in the yogurt.
2 Whisk the egg whites until stiff but not dry. Fold lightly but thoroughly into the cheese mixture, together with the brandy.
3 Line 4 small perforated heart-shaped moulds with clean muslin. Spoon the cheese mixture into the lined moulds and cover with another layer of muslin.
4 Place the moulds on a tray or baking sheet with a rim, and chill for 6-8 hours. The excess liquid should have drained away from the cheese, and the moulds should be firm enough to turn out.
5 Unmould the hearts and decorate with vine leaves and clusters of grapes.
