Ingredients Equipment Method Nutrition Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup 2% cottage cheese Base for the creamy texture
  • ⅔ cup milk chocolate chips Melted until smooth
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder Adds deep earthy flavor

Equipment

  • 1 Food processor Or high speed blender
  • 1 microwave-safe dish For melting the chocolate
  • 1 Spatula To scrape down the bowl

Method
 

  1. Heat the chocolate chips in the microwave in short bursts, stirring between each, to prevent burning until completely smooth and fluid.
    A metal spoon stirs dark, glossy, melted chocolate chips inside a small bowl.
  2. Blend the cottage cheese, melted chocolate, and cocoa powder in a food processor to break down the curds into a thick, uniform paste.
  3. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and blend again to ensure a silky texture without any hidden dairy lumps.
  4. Transfer the mixture into small dishes and chill in the refrigerator for thirty minutes to thicken the dessert into a firm, spoonable consistency.
    Hands place two small glass jars filled with blended dark chocolate and cottage cheese into a refrigerator.

Notes

Make sure to scrape down the sides of your food processor halfway through blending so no curds are left behind in the final dessert.
