    I've used this for ages -- its GREAT!! Also, if you need a more firm consistency, you can let the cottage cheese drain some through cheese cloth or a coffee filter before processing. Mmmmm. - 5/15/08

    I agree with you, cottage cheese is very good alternative for cream cheese. Especially because the last one is high in fat and cholesterol. If you guys want to discover a few more substitutes, i can recommend you page http://creamcheesesubstitute.com/ . Peace :) - 5/21/15

    I was paying a lot of $$ for "farm style" cottage cheese, which is a lovely smooth block of creamy cheese. If I knew it was this simple to make I would have made it myself! Thanks! - 3/15/13

    I have done this in place of ricotta cheese when I didn't have any and no one could tell the difference.
