Thoroughly rub the cottage cheese with ½ part jam and cocoa, add fruit yogurt there so that our mass is not too liquid. Then we send the resulting cream to a blender and beat until the curd is completely dissolved. We take a bowl and lay out the yogurt cream with a slide, on the top with a small spoon we make a small indentation in the form of a “crater”.
Pour some jam into it, and send cherry there. We lay down the prunes below, it will imitate “frozen magma”. The dessert is completely ready. Both children and adults will appreciate its taste - this gentle delicacy will become a favorite dish of your family.

Gelatin is present in the recipe, the consistency of cream mousse will depend on its quantity. The proportions of the products are allowed to change - each time a new shade of taste is obtained.
The classic version of the preparation: half a kilogram of cottage cheese, gelatin - 20 g, half a liter of yogurt (you can drink, but not very liquid), peaches, cherries, strawberries, sugar (to taste) and half a glass of boiled water.
Gelatin must first be soaked in cold water for about an hour. Then pour into a pan and slightly warm until the gelatin is completely dissolved (do not let it boil). Beat yogurt, cottage cheese, sugar with a blender until a homogeneous mass is formed, pour cooled gelatin into it with a trickle and beat again.
We spread the cream in layers: strawberries - cream - peaches - cream - sweet cherry - cream. We send fruit and yogurt mousse to the cold for several hours so that it freezes well. As a result, we got a delicious dessert, which will be a great addition to the festive table.
