    my 12 yr old daughter saw this one on tv one day and asked me to get the ingredients when we were out shopping...she made it all by herself and when she served it to the family i was wowed, this looked like something u would have bought or ordered from a store or resturante...its a beautiful dessert, and the family loved it, it was gone in the same day! this dessert has been added to our family holiday menu for now on!

    It's a great healthy dessert. I made it for a bbq and everyone loved it. However, I thought it was good, but not great. Personally, Im not a big fan of gelatin so that's probably why I didn't like the taste as much. Also, the "cheesecake part," the bottom layer didn't really taste like cheesecake. You must eat all the layers together for each spoonful because that's what makes it taste really good. The crust is perfect for this dessert so don't omit it! I might substitute in cream cheese instead of cottage cheese next time.
