You&#39;d never guess this cottage cheese chocolate mousse is loaded with protein and fiber. This healthy dessert will satisfy any sweet tooth!

Cottage Cheese Chocolate Mousse

cottage cheese (I used 2%)

cocoa powder

maple syrup

tsp vanilla extract

tsp chia seeds

cookies, nuts, berries, banana, vanilla yogurt, or whipped cream

Add cottage cheese, cocoa powder, maple syrup, chia seeds, and vanilla extract to a blender.

Blend until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed. This will take 30-45 seconds.

Transfer to a jar or cup, cover, and refrigerate for a minimum of 30-minutes or until mousse has thickened. Add toppings right before eating and enjoy!

This was outstanding. I used a food processor with a large blade and grounded flax seed first then continued with the recipe. I used monk fruit sweetener instead of syrup to keep it sugar free and added a bit more vanilla. Such a great nutritious recipe!

DOUBLE THE AMOUNTS IF YOU'RE USING A VITAMIX!

Yummy taste!  But in these amounts, it does not work well in a Vitamix.  At least, it didn't work well in mine.  It would probably work well if you double the amounts, but I only had 1 cup of cottage cheese left.

So I ended up with a heavy mess all at the bottom of the blender;  If I blended on high, it all got thrown up the sides (and so didn't continue to mix).  So I blended on low, but after 2 minutes of blending, it was still very grainy.

Then it was difficult to get it OUT of the blender.

I ended up making a cleanup smoothie to get the rest out, but I STILL had chia seeds glued to the sides of the container, so I had to scrub with boiling water.

The result was yummy, if a little grainy, but the frustration level was high.

I really like cottage cheese and figured I should give this a try but it REALLY tastes like chocolate cottage cheese ☠️. Unfortunately I followed the recipe exactly and I don't think it's to my liking. Sorry!

WOW!! This is really delicious! I was skeptical because I've tried cottage cheese-based desserts before and was disappointed. I like cottage cheese but when I want a sweet treat, I don't want cottage cheese lol. I cut back on the maple syrup a little bit because I wanted it less sweet and the result was perfect. Chocolatey and creamy and high in protein. Winner!
