The first time I make a recipe I always try to follow it exactly.<br/>Questioned the used of the sweetener but added it. Did not like the sweetness<br/>I am a big fan of Boursin's Garlic and Herb Cheese.<br/>This is not it - not the herb balance and not the savoriness I was expecting.

Delish recipe! I have recently made other yogurt cheese recipes on "Zaar and loved them, too, so decided to try this one also. Because I make regular Boursin cheese (with cream cheese and/or other cheeses), I added a few ingredients (that I usually use) to this recipe for Boursin Herbed Yogurt Cheese. They included 1/2 tsp Sherry, 1/8 tsp Worcestershire sauce, and 2 tsp parmesan cheese. My yogurt cheese drained for about 16 hours, and after mixing in all ingredients, I let it "meld" in the refrigerator for about 8 hours. Served it with thin wheat crackers as an appetizer during a Prime Rib dinner party (with Stovies, roast asparagus, and cranberry-acorn squash). Thank you for a very tasty recipe that we will use again.

I'm on a yogurt cheese kick, thanks to the huge size of yogurt at Costco. I've never had boursin cheese, but loved the herbs that were included as well as the suggestions for worchestishire sauce. I did not have the 2 cups of yogurt cheese so only used 1 cup and thought it was great. We used this as suggested as apotato topping. It has a very thick, creamy texture similar to sour cream, but much tastier with all the herbs. I think this will be great for a dip at parties. I also gave a friend a taste on a Matzo cracker and she loved it and requested the recipe.

This is very very similar to the real thing. We eat quite a bit of Boursin cheese and this sure beats the cost of buying it at the store! Thanks so much for this great recipe! Made for Holiday tag.
