Made for 4 and for the DM and DS (dessert over 2 nights) but I had a taste (don't have a sweet tooth) but found a litle grainy to taste but that could be the cottage cheese (Weight Watchers brand) but otherwise tsted very nice. Thankyou Shelby Jo, made for ZAAR Stars.

Made this recipe as given, although I then took Annacia's tip & added a bit of peach extract to give it more of a peach flavor, & I was very pleased with this very nice, refreshing peachy dessert! Thanks for sharing the recipe! [Made & reviewed in Zaar Stars recipe tag]

I like this very much. Mine was very smooth and creamy. The only thing I would do differently would be to add some peach extract to enhance the peach flavor which largely lost to the cottage and cream cheeses. This actually tastes like a slice of cheesecake (which isn't a bad thing at all, lol) and it certainly is very quick and simple. It's also thick enough to be eaten at once without any chill time if you wanted too. Made for Photo Tag

I was in a hurry when I was fixing this and didn't blend it as well as I should have, but the flavor was still good. Next time I'll blend longer and make it nice and creamy. Thanks for a fast, easy dessert.

I liked the taste but didn't enjoy the texture at all. I agree with racrgal that I would blend until completely smooth (or use yogurt) or not at all. Just a personal preference.
