Description
A healthier, protein-packed twist on classic chocolate mousse made with cottage cheese and dark chocolate.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1 cup dark chocolate, melted
- 2 tablespoons honey (or to taste)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a blender, combine the cottage cheese, melted chocolate, honey, and vanilla extract.
- Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes.
- Taste the mousse and adjust sweetness if needed by adding more honey; blend again briefly.
- Spoon the mousse into individual serving dishes and chill for at least 30 minutes before serving.
- Enjoy your creamy dessert, potentially with toppings like shaved chocolate, berries, or whipped cream.
Notes
Avoid using hot chocolate to prevent curdling the cottage cheese. Store in airtight containers in the fridge for up to 5 days.
