Make sure the cottage cheese and cream cheese are at room temperature before blending to ensure a smooth and creamy texture.

For a smoother texture, strain the cottage cheese through a fine mesh strainer before blending.

Serve the cheesecake cold for the best texture and flavor.


Variations:


Add a tablespoon of vanilla extract to the filling for a more complex flavor.

Use lime juice and zest instead of lemon for a lime cheesecake variation.

Fold some fresh berries, such as raspberries or blueberries, into the filling before pouring it into the crust for a fruity twist.

Add some chopped nuts, such as almonds or pistachios, to the crust for a crunchy texture.

Replace some of the cream cheese with Greek yogurt for a tangier and lighter cheesecake.
