This blender cheesecake turns cottage cheese into something remarkably smooth and creamy by blitzing it with lemon Jello dissolved in boiling water and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
Fold in frozen whipped topping, pour it over a buttery graham cracker crust, and let the fridge do the rest.
Top it with canned pie filling, fresh berries, or sliced fruit, and you’ve got a cheesecake that comes together in 20 minutes flat.
Kitchen Tips
- Blend the cottage cheese in batches until completely smooth. Any lumps left behind will show up in the final texture.
- Make sure the Jello is fully dissolved in the boiling water before adding the cottage cheese, or you’ll get gritty pockets of gelatin.
- The cheesecake sets fast thanks to the Jello. Check it after about 30 minutes in the fridge.
Variations
- Use strawberry or raspberry Jello instead of lemon for a pink-tinted, berry-flavored cheesecake.
- Top with fresh sliced strawberries and a drizzle of chocolate sauce for a fancier presentation.
- Mix diced fresh fruit directly into the filling before pouring into the crust for fruit throughout every bite.
