The lush thick whipped cream foam gives this delicious French dessert a wonderful soft texture. The berries give it a tempting honey sweetness and slight sourness. And thanks to the cheese base, this delicacy is also extremely nutritious.
Cherries, strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, cranberries are perfect for making the light cheese soufflé. You can use both fresh and frozen berries.
You can make this berry soufflé in just a few minutes: bake it in the oven, cook in a water bath or add gelatin and freeze.
Drizzle the finished soufflé with honey, jam or grated berries by RudTM, decorate with a sprig of mint – and you will get an extremely tasty and delicious dessert, worthy of serving in the best French restaurants.
Berry Soufflé with Cottage and Cream Cheese
Berries can be added to this dessert in two ways. The first one we are suggesting is to lay out the pieces of fruit on the bottom of a mould and pour the cheese mass over them. The second is to pre-blend the berries with a blender and mix with the cheese. In this case, you will get a soufflé of a seductive light pink colour. The sweeter the berries you choose, the less sugar the dessert will need.
