Arden Cookbook published by Arden Farms Co. a California dairy company looks like it was probably published in the early 60's but it is undated.The company had home delivery.The intro to the booklet states: "Here is a cookbook designed for you and and our western way of living. We hope that many pleasant hours of eating and fun will be yours. May it's use make life a little more enjoyable." It not surprisingly features a lot of dairy recipes. The following recipe seems like an unusual use for cottage cheese.

1/2 cup sugar
