Vanilla extract – 1 teaspoon (5 ml)
-
Milk of choice – 2–4 tablespoons (30–60 ml)
-
Salt – 1/8 teaspoon
Instructions
-
Add cottage cheese, cocoa powder, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, milk, and salt to a blender or food processor.
-
Blend for 1–2 minutes until completely smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.

Taste and adjust sweetness or thickness by adding more sweetener or milk if necessary.

Notes
For the smoothest texture, use a high-speed blender and blend thoroughly. Full-fat cottage cheese creates a richer mousse, while low-fat versions produce a lighter result. Chill well before serving for best flavor and texture.
