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