Estimated Time: 30 min
1 Beat the cream cheese, 1/2 of the vanilla extract and 1/2 of the sugar
together until smooth and aerated. Rub the cottage cheese through a fine
sieve with a rubber spatula and add to the cream cheese along with the
yogurt. Fold mixture until well blended.
2 Cut double thick sheets of cheesecloth into 8 - -inch squares. Moisten
the cheesecloth and line each mold allowing the cloth to lap over the
edges. Divide the cheese mixture into the dishes. Place the molds onto a
deep plate or in a baking dish and refrigerate and allow to drain overnight
until firm enough to hold their own shape.
3 Cut a "V" shape into the strawberries and remove the stem.
4 Slice the strawberries lengthwise into thin heart-shaped slices. Reserve
the larger slices (about half of the total slices) to garnish the plates.
5 Place the remaining strawberry slices in a food processor with the
remaining sugar and pur.e until smooth. Strain the pur.e through a very
fine sieve into a small sauce pan.
6 Bring the pur.e to a simmer and cook to a medium sauce consistency.
Remove from the heat, add the remaining vanilla extract and chill.
7 Carefully unmold the cheese hearts onto the center of each serving plate.
8 Surround with the strawberry sauce and drizzle thin ribbons of honey over
the cream hearts using the tip of a paring knife. Garnish with the reserved
strawberry slices and mint sprigs before serving.
