Yogurt Cheese


Yogurt cheese can be used as a replacement for cream cheese and sour cream and you can use it to make spreads, dips, whipped cream and cake frosting!

Ingredients:

• 2 cups Low-fat plain yogurt

Preparation:

1.Place yogurt in a fine mesh sieve or colander lined with two layers of cheesecloth. Place the sieve over a large bowl to catch the liquid that drips out of the yogurt. Place this set-up in the refrigerator and let stand overnight.
2.Discard the liquid in the bowl below and you are left with rich, creamy yogurt cheese in the cheesecloth.
