Question

Hello, A person who eats a grain-based rice cake, which requires the blessing "Mezonot", and spreads cottage cheese on it, and consumes a total amount of cottage cheese more than half a container, should he recite the after-blessing both Borei Nefashot for the cottage cheese and Me'ein Shalosh?

Answer

Hello 

With a small amount of spread, which serves to enhance and flavor the "Mezonot", one blesses only according to the main item. 

However, if the rice cake is eaten with a large amount of spread, in a way that it is evident that one eats to enjoy the spread itself, one blesses on both, the first and the last blessing.
