How to make Guava sweet with cheese:
- The first thing we must do to make this delicious guava sweet with cheese is to prepare all the ingredients.
- Then, we start the homemade dessert recipe by placing the water in a deep saucepan, which we heat over high heat until it begins to boil.
- While we wait for the water to boil, we take the opportunity to wash the guavas, remove the stem with the help of a knife and cut them in the shape of half-moons.
- When the water begins to boil, we take the cinnamon sticks and add them to the pot, reduce the temperature from high heat to medium heat and let the water boil with the cinnamon for approximately 5 minutes.
- After 5 minutes, we put the guava pieces in the water, stir the preparation a little and let them cook for 5 minutes. In this way, the fruit will absorb the flavor of the water infused with cinnamon and we will obtain an exquisite guava sweet.
- After these last 5 minutes, we add the sugar, we move the preparation to integrate all the ingredients of the easy dessert and we let the ingredients cook for 10 more minutes.
- To finish, we serve the Mexican dessert by placing some pieces of guava in small glasses with a little of the sweet liquid and crowning with a touch of cottage cheese.
- The cheesy guava fudge featured here is a perfect choice for any special occasion, including Christmas, Thanksgiving, and even Valentine’s Day. Being such an aromatic dessert, it fits perfectly with all kinds of events.
