Suggest a better descriptionCombine the cottage cheese, cream cheese and sour cream and mix with an electric mixer until smooth. Strain through a fine sieve two or three times. Fold in the whipped cream and herbs, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Line a three-cup heart mold with three layers of cheesecloth, letting the cloth hand over the edges. Put sprigs of dill in the bottom of the mold and spoon in the cheese mixture. filling exactly to the top. Fold the cloth over the cheese and set on a tray in the refrigerator for at least a day. Peel and slice the cucumbers into rounds about 1/4" thick. If not to be used immediately, place them on a towel, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate. The cukes will keep approximately three hours before becoming limp. To serve, unfold the cheesecloth, invert mold onto a serving plate, and surround with cukes. The cucumbers will be used to scoop up portions of the heart. From: Martha Stewarts Hors eoeuvres. NOTES: This recipe is designed to made in either a porcelain heart with holes in it or straw heart baskets made to hold coeurs---both of which enable the whey to seep from the cheese mixture for a creamy result. HOWEVER, the first time I made this, I did not own such a gem. I used a heart-shaped metal mold with cheesecloth as described in the recipe. Then I wrapped the whole thing, mold and all, in several more layers of cheesecloth, securing it TIGHTLY on the METAL side of the "package." I then placed it on a plate, metal side UP, so that it could drain through the layers of cheesecloth. It worked just fine. Also the original recipe calls for cutting the cucumber rounds into heart shapes. Go for it if you want to, but the presentation is beautiful WITHOUT all that labor-intensive cuke cutting!
