Homemade Cream Cheese

I use cream cheese in a few recipes. Especially my cookies! You can easily make it at home with just 3 ingredients.

NEED

4 cups whole milk

2 tablespoons vinegar

1/4 teaspoon salt

In a saucepan, bring the milk to a boil.

 

Once boiling, turn the stove in low heat, add vinegar while stirring with a spatula. 

 

The curds will begin to separate and curdles.

 

 Remove from the heat.

 

Strain the curds using a cheesecloth. 

 

Squeeze out excess liquid, then transfer the curds to a food processor. 

 

Add salt and blend until smooth and creamy.

 

Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
