  • August and September are full of fresh apples, and every year the same question comes up: what to do with them all. Each time, I try to make something new and a little different. Beyond the usual jams and preserves, apples work in all sorts of other dishes — they're wonderful alongside meat or in salads, and they're just as good in desserts. To make a dessert that's tasty and wholesome, I tried pairing apples with cottage cheese, and it turned out delicious! Give it a try yourself — here's how I make it. First, prepare the apple filling. Wash your apples well. If they're fresh, the skins will be soft and there's no need to peel them. Quarter the apples, core them, and cut them into small cubes. Set a skillet over the heat and add the butter. When it's almost melted, sprinkle in the sugar and stir. Add the diced apples and toss to coat them in the sugar. Cook the apples in the sugar for 10–15 minutes. At first the apples will release their juice and the mixture will look watery, but after a few minutes of cooking the juice evaporates, the mixture thickens, and the apples turn soft. At that point, turn off the heat and set the apples aside to cool completely. For the cottage-cheese layer, use a soft cottage cheese and press it through a sieve so it's smooth and uniform — this is what makes the finished dessert so silky. Add the sour cream and powdered sugar to the cottage cheese and mix well. Spoon a little apple filling into the bottom of each serving glass, add a layer of the cottage-cheese cream, and top with a bit more apple filling. You can pipe the cream through a pastry bag with a decorative tip to make the dessert look prettier. Let it chill in the refrigerator for a while. If you like, sprinkle the top with grated chocolate and garnish with mint leaves. Enjoy!
