This Easter without eggs differs from many others in its characteristic contradictory consistency.

How to cook Quick Easter with Butter

Step 1

Melt and slightly cool the butter. Put the cookies in a bag and roll with a rolling pin to make small crumbs and “dust”. Mix crushed biscuits with 3 tbsp. l. butter and 1 tbsp. l. condensed milk.

Step 2

Bring cottage cheese, remaining butter, condensed milk and cream to room temperature. Put all these products in a deep bowl and beat with a submersible blender until smooth.

Step 3

Add vanilla essence and beat again. The mass should be completely smooth, without a single lump.

Step 4

Cover the Easter mold with several layers of gauze so that the edges hang down. Lay out the curd mass.

Step 5

Lay on top of the curd mass (the future basis of Easter) the mass of cookies, trying to distribute it as evenly as possible. Cover with the hanging edges of cheesecloth and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, up to 24 hours if possible. Garnish with raisins or almonds before serving.

Quick Easter with Butter - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I use margarine instead of butter in this recipe?

Yes, margarine can be substituted for butter, but it may slightly alter the flavor and texture of the Easter dish. For best results, use a high-quality margarine with a similar fat content to butter.

How long can I store this Easter dish in the refrigerator?

The Easter dish can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Ensure it's covered tightly with plastic wrap or kept in an airtight container to maintain freshness.

Is there a vegetarian alternative to condensed milk?

Yes, you can use sweetened condensed coconut milk or make a homemade version using plant-based milk and sugar. These alternatives work well while keeping the recipe vegetarian.

Can I make this recipe without a blender?

Absolutely! Use a fork or potato masher to mix the cottage cheese and other ingredients. It might take a bit more effort, but the results will still be delicious.

How can I adjust the recipe for a smaller portion?

Halve all the ingredients for a smaller portion. Keep the same steps and refrigeration time, but use a smaller mold or container for setting.

Can I freeze this Easter dish for later?

Freezing is not recommended, as the texture of the cottage cheese may become grainy after thawing. It's best enjoyed fresh or refrigerated.

What can I use instead of cookies for the crumb layer?

Graham crackers, digestive biscuits, or even crushed nuts mixed with a bit of sugar can be great substitutes for the cookie layer.

How can I make this dessert dairy-free?

Substitute butter with coconut oil, use dairy-free condensed milk, and replace cottage cheese with a dairy-free alternative like blended silken tofu or cashew cream.

Can I add fruits to this recipe?

Yes! Dried fruits like raisins, apricots, or cranberries can be mixed into the cottage cheese layer or used as garnish for added flavor and texture.

What else can I use instead of gauze for the mold?

Cheesecloth is ideal, but a clean, thin kitchen towel or a few layers of paper towels can work in a pinch. Ensure they're food-safe and won't leave fibers in the dish.
