Mmmm, who doesn't love creamy lemon chiffon?  This unique take on the beloved dessert has dropped the fat content to only 2 grams and has increased the protein to 11 grams per serving.  That is reason to celebrate-pass the chiffon, please.

Yield: 6 servings


Ingredients:
  • 2 envelopes unflavored gelatin
  • 1-1/4 cups cold water, divided
  • 1-1/3 cups nonfat dry milk powder
  • 2-1/2 teaspoons unsweetened lemon soft drink mix (like KOOL-AID)
  • 3 to 4 drops yellow food coloring, optional
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup reduced-fat cottage cheese
  • 1 tablespoon graham cracker crumbs
  • Fat free whipped topping


Instructions:
  1. In a small saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over 1/2 cup cold water; let stand for 1 minute. Cook and stir over low heat until gelatin is completely dissolved; set aside.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the milk powder, drink mix, food coloring if desired, salt and remaining water; beat on high speed until smooth.
  3. Place the cottage cheese in a blender or food processor; cover and process until smooth. Add milk mixture and gelatin; cover and process until thickened.
  4. Spoon 1/2 cup each into six 6-oz. custard cups. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour. Spread with whipped topping; sprinkle with cracker crumbs.
