Description

Tropical flavors, creamy dreams. Would the Pineapple Cottage Cheese Tart make your dessert lineup?


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 (450g) can of crushed pineapple
  • 1 packet Boudoir biscuits (or Tennis Biscuits)
  • 1 (397g) can condensed milk
  • 50ml lemon juice
  • 1 (250ml) tub smooth cottage cheese (I used cream cheese)
  • 5ml gelatin (one 10g sachet works well)
  • 125ml whipped cream

Garnish (Optional)

  • Sprinkled nuts, grated chocolate, or crushed biscuits


Instructions

  1. Start by draining the crushed pineapple, but don’t toss that syrup. You’ll need it for the biscuits.
  2. Take your biscuits and give them a quick dip in the syrup.
  3. Line them up in a rectangular Pyrex dish like you’re building the foundation of something amazing.
  4. Feel free to go with a double layer if you’re feeling generous (or hungry).
  5. Grab a mixing bowl and beat the condensed milk with the lemon juice.
  6. It’ll turn into a velvety, creamy goodness.
  7. Add the cottage cheese (or cream cheese, your choice) and keep mixing until everything’s blended.
  8. Stir in the pineapple gently so you don’t lose that fluffy texture.
  9. Sprinkle the gelatin over the leftover pineapple syrup and let it soak for a couple of minutes.
  10. Then, melt it over hot water until it’s completely dissolved.
  11. Stir it into the creamy pineapple mixture, making sure it’s evenly incorporated.
  12. Pour this dreamy mixture over your biscuit base.
  13. Smooth it out and then top it with a cloud of whipped cream.
  14. For the finishing touch, sprinkle on some nuts, grated chocolate, or crushed biscuits. Whatever speaks to your dessert-loving soul.
  15. Stick it in the fridge and let it chill until it’s firm.
  16. If you can let it sit overnight, it’ll reward your patience with perfection.
