Raspberries Wrapped in Creamy Cottage Cheese in a Crisp Meringue Case

It is worth getting the rose water or essence to flavour this luscious-looking dish as it gives a deliciously subtle flavour both to the brittle meringue and to the creamy filling. You can use another flavouring essence if you like but I think rose is by far the most special and very useful to have to flavour all kinds of milk or cream puddings and also fruit salads. If you are using fresh summer fruit strawberries are also good in this dish but the frozen ones are too soggy.
