Description

This 2 ingredient cottage cheese chocolate mousse is creamy, high-protein, gluten-free, and perfect for a quick sweet snack or dessert. It features a rich chocolate flavor with an optional crisp chocolate shell topping.


Ingredients

Scale

1 cup cottage cheese (preferably full-fat for creaminess)

1/4 cup cocoa powder or cacao powder

1/4 cup powdered sugar, monkfruit, or maple syrup (adjust to taste)

1 tbsp chocolate chips (for optional chocolate shell)

1 tsp coconut oil (for optional chocolate shell)


Instructions

1. Place cottage cheese in a blender or food processor. Blend until creamy and smooth.

2. Add cocoa powder and sweetener. Blend again until fully combined and velvety.

3. Pour mixture into serving jar or bowl. Freeze for 1-2 hours, stirring once halfway through to prevent iciness.

4. For chocolate shell: melt chocolate chips with coconut oil in microwave (10-second bursts, stirring between) or over double boiler. Pour over mousse.

5. Sprinkle sea salt if desired. Serve chilled.

Notes

  1. For a sweeter mousse, add more powdered sugar, monkfruit, or maple syrup to taste.
  2. Use small-curd cottage cheese for smoother blending.
  3. Store mousse in fridge for a softer texture, or freezer for firmer mousse.
  4. Toppings like berries, chopped nuts, or a peanut butter swirl work well.
