Ingredients
  

  • 350 g fromage blanc quark - choose any fat content you like
  • 120 ml double cream not absolutely essential but makes it richer and more delicious
  • Sugar optional
  • Vanilla essence optional
  • Seasonal fruit to serve

Instructions
 

  • Beat the fromage blanc in a bowl until smooth and then stir in the cream, mixing until well incorporated.
  • If you like you can add a little sugar at this point or a little vanilla essence.
  • Line the moulds with damp muslin and then pour the mixture into the moulds.
  • Place on a tray or tin and leave in the fridge overnight. During this time the liquid drains from the moulds and you can then turn them out onto a plate.
  • Serve with seasonal fruit such as fresh raspberries, strawberries, apricots etc or make a purée with your fruit adding a little lemon juice and icing sugar to taste.
  • For extra lightness you can beat a couple of egg whites to firmish peaks and gently fold into the mixture.
  • Alternatively you can whip the cream first before adding to the fromage blanc.
