Ingredients

  • 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • Red & Blue Food Coloring
  • 1 1/2 Cups Cottage Cheese
  • 1 Cup Sugar
  • 1 Cup Cookie Crumbs (about 200 grams)
  • 6 Tbsp Butter
  • 1 1/8 Tbsp Gelatin
  • 1/2 Cup Sour Cream
  • 1/2 Cup Heavy Cream
  • 3 Tbsp Water

Instructions

  • Crush cookies or graham crackers into fine crumbs.
  • Melt butter and then mix with cookie crumbs to form what looks like wet sand.
  • Divide the cookie mixture into 4 molds. Pack tightly onto the bottom of the molds or the bottom of the pan. Place in the freezer for about 5 minutes.
  • Mix the vanilla, sugar, sour cream, and cottage cheese together. I find it best if mixed in a blender but you can use a large bowl. 
  • Heat up water in a small bowl then mix in the gelatin. You want to make sure it gets fully dissolved.
  • Combine cottage cheese mixture with cream and gelatin mixture. Mix well.
  • Divide the cheesecake mixture into thirds. Mix red food coloring into one-third and blue into one-third. Make sure to mix them well.
  • Layer the red white and blue cheesecake mixtures over the prepared crust. Pop back in the freezer for about 10 minutes. 
  • Decorate and serve.
