Description
This 4-Ingredient Cottage Cheese Chocolate Mousse is a decadent and guilt-free dessert that’s quick and easy to make. With just a few simple ingredients, you can whip up a silky-smooth chocolate mousse that’s low in sugar but big on flavor.
Ingredients
– 1 cup low-fat cottage cheese
– 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
– 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
1. In a high-powered blender or food processor, combine the cottage cheese, cocoa powder, honey/maple syrup, and vanilla extract.
2. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
3. Spoon the chocolate mousse into individual serving dishes or ramekins.
4. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the mousse to set.
5. Serve chilled, optionally garnished with a dusting of cocoa powder, fresh berries, or a dollop of whipped cream.
Notes
For a thicker, richer mousse, use full-fat cottage cheese. You can also experiment with different sweeteners like stevia or monk fruit. This dessert keeps well in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
