Ingredients
  

For the Mousse
  • 2 cups Cottage Cheese full-fat for the richest texture
  • 1/2 cup Peanut Butter natural, no sugar added varieties
  • 1/4 cup Sweetener maple syrup or sugar-free alternatives like monk fruit
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt optional
  • 1-2 tablespoons Milk or Heavy Cream used to adjust mousse texture
For the Topping (Optional)
  • 1/4 cup Dark Chocolate Chips melted
  • 1 tablespoon Coconut Oil to enhance flavor when combined with chocolate
  • 2 tablespoons Chopped Peanuts for garnish

Equipment

  • high-speed blender or food processor

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a high-speed blender or food processor, combine the cottage cheese, peanut butter, sweetener, vanilla extract, and optional salt. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  2. If the mousse appears too thick, stir in 1-2 tablespoons of milk or heavy cream and blend again until desired texture is reached.
  3. Transfer the mixture to a bowl, cover it, and refrigerate for 15-20 minutes to allow it to firm up.
  4. While chilling, melt the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a microwave-safe bowl until smooth.
  5. Once chilled, serve the mousse in bowls or jars, drizzling the melted chocolate on top and garnishing with chopped peanuts.
