      Press the cottage cheese through two layers of cheesecloth and rub it through a sieve.

      Beat the egg yolks until white with regular and vanilla sugar.

      Add milk, pour the mixture into a metal container, place it in a water bath, and, stirring constantly and not allowing it to boil, cook until the mass begins to thicken. If you dip a wooden spatula into the mass, run your finger through it – and the trail from your finger does not close – the mass is well cooked.

      Remove from heat, add butter.

      Stir until smooth.

      Combine the mass with the cottage cheese and beat well until homogeneous.

      Add nuts and finely chopped candied fruits.

      Mix well.

      Place the pascha mold in a bowl, lining it with a double layer of damp cheesecloth.

      Transfer the mass into the mold and smooth the top.

      Cover with the loose ends of the cheesecloth.

      Place a saucer of appropriate size on the cheesecloth, and put a weight of about 2 kg on it (I used a jar of tomatoes). Leave in the refrigerator overnight.

      Remove the pascha from the mold, carefully take off the cheesecloth. Decorate to taste and desire.

      Enjoy your meal!
