How to Prepare Lemon Cottage Cheese Cake
🔥 Preheat the oven to 350F (175C). ✨ Prepare a lined loaf pan lined with parchment paper for baking. 🍋 Add (in this order) the cottage cheese, eggs, lemon slices (peel and all), vanilla extract (if using), and cornstarch to the blender. Be sure not to over-blend; 20 seconds should be enough. 🥣 Pour the mixture into the lined loaf pan. ♨️ Bake for 30-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. 🧊 Cool the cake completely before serving. 🍓 Top with fresh berries, additional lemon slices, and a drizzle of honey for an extra touch of sweetness.
