Chocolate Cottage Cheese Mousse

This Chocolate Cottage Cheese Mousse recipe was born out of a pure, unadulterated craving for chocolate. I wanted something rich, decadent, and deeply satisfying, but I also wanted it to be relatively healthy. I am a chocolate addict

Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 cups cottage cheese (full-fat recommended)
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder (unsweetened, preferably dark)
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Dark chocolate shavings for garnish

Instructions

Let’s get blending and create some chocolate magic! This mousse is incredibly easy to make, and the results are so rewarding. First, gather all your ingredients and equipment. Having everything within easy reach makes the process much smoother.

Next, combine all the ingredients (cottage cheese, cocoa powder, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract) in your blender or food processor. Secure the lid tightly – we don’t want any chocolate explosions!

Now, blend until completely smooth and creamy. This may take a minute or two, depending on the power of your blender. You want to make sure there are absolutely no lumps of cottage cheese remaining.

Once the mixture is perfectly smooth, carefully spoon it into your serving glasses or bowls. Don’t overfill them – leave a little bit of space at the top for the garnish.

Next, cover the glasses with plastic wrap or lids and place them in the refrigerator to chill for at least one hour. This chilling time is essential, as it allows the mousse to set and the flavors to meld together.

Finally, just before serving, garnish with dark chocolate shavings. This adds a touch of elegance and enhances the intense chocolate flavor. And that’s it! Your Chocolate Cottage Cheese Mousse is ready to be enjoyed.
