How to Make Cottage Cheese Delight

  1. In a medium-sized glass mixing bowl, add 16 ounces (2 cups) of cottage cheese.
  2. Sprinkle 3 ounces (approximately 1 packet) of orange jello powder evenly over the cottage cheese.
  3. Gently fold in 1 cup of drained pineapple chunks and 1/2 cup of drained mandarin orange segments. Mix until well combined.
  4. Prepare 1 package of Dream Whip (or equivalent whipped topping) according to the package directions. Once whipped, gently fold it into the fruit and cottage cheese mixture.
  5. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to chill thoroughly.
