Hrudka (Easter Cheese)
This is as close to my Slovak grandmother's recipe as I can get. It goes great with ham and a side of pickled beets.

1, Mix all ingredients together and beat well. 2. Cook in a pot slowly over low heat, stirring constantly. 3. When it looks like yellow cottage cheese and the liquid separates, pour into 2 CLEAN NEW knee high stockings. (Yes, I'm serious! It works better than cheesecloth!) 4. Tie it at the open end, so the cheese looks like a ball. 5. Hang it from the kitchen sink (or kitchen cabinet with a bowl under it) and let it drip for about two hours. 6. Refrigerate overnight. 7. Remove stocking and slice and serve cold.
