Cottage Cheese Lemon Pudding

Ingredients

  • 1 cup cottage cheese

Blend the filling

In a food processor or blender, combine the cottage cheese, cream cheese, powdered sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla.

Blend until very smooth, making sure to stop and scrape down the sides once or twice.
