Homemade Curd Snacks Recipe

Mornings are hard. Waking up early and getting out of my comfy bed always affects my mood. I'm not a morning person and I doubt that I will ever be. Fortunately, I found a way to keep myself excited to start my day. Having a delicious breakfast makes every early morning a little bit more bearable and extra points if it looks Instagramable!

Curd Snacks are great for this job. They are easy to make and can sit in your fridge for a week, waiting to upgrade your morning game.

Sweet cottage cheese bars with chocolate glaze

For the glaze:

• 100 grams of chocolate of choice (I recommend 72% dark chocolate but you can use milk chocolate as well)

• 20 grams unsalted butter

For the filling:

• 250 grams of cottage cheese

• 180 grams of condensed milk

• 100 grams unsalted butter (room temperature)

Instructions:

1. Prepare your forms. I used simple silicone rectangles but you can switch to any other molds or just cupcake liners.

2. Melt the chocolate in a saucepan over medium heat and add butter, make sure everything is properly mixed.

3. With a clean paintbrush or a silicone brush lightly cover the forms with chocolate. You can repeat this process a few times to get the thickness you like (leave some chocolate for later to cover the bottom of your bars).

4. Put your forms in the fridge to set while you make the filling.

5. This step is optional but I always press the cottage cheese through a metal strainer for a smoother texture.

6. Mix the butter until smooth and pour in the condensed milk, mix well, add the cottage cheese and mix again.

7. Fill the cold forms with your filling. Heat the chocolate again and brush over the top.

8. Put the forms in the fridge overnight to set (or at least 3 hours). For easier removal, I put the forms in the freezer for 30 minutes before popping them out.

Plate with fresh berries and enjoy.

Happy caking!
