- In blender or food processor combine cottage cheese and cream cheese.
- Cover and blend or process until smooth, stopping several times to scrape down sides.
- Whisk 1/2 cup of the cottage cheese mixture into the gelatin mixture. Whisk in remaining cottage cheese mixture until smooth.
- Fold in whipped dessert topping.
- Spoon filling over chilled crumb mixture.
- Cover and refrigerate 8 to 24 hours or until filling is firm. To serve, cut in squares. Top with lime wedges.
- That's it! Enjoy!
