Cottage Cheese Mousse
This cottage cheese mousse is an easy chocolate dessert made with cottage cheese, cocoa powder, and honey. Blend everything until silky smooth, then chill for 30 minutes for a thick, creamy mousse.
Ingredients
- 600 gr cottage cheese
- 40 g cocoa powder
- 4 tablespoon honey
Instructions
- Add 600 gr cottage cheese to a food processor or high-speed blender. Blend for about 1 minute, scraping down the sides once if needed, until completely smooth and creamy.
- Add 40 g cocoa powder and 4 tbsp honey. Blend again until the cocoa is fully mixed in and the mousse looks silky with no lumps remaining.
- Divide the mousse between 4 small serving glasses or bowls. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, until chilled and slightly thicker. Serve plain or add optional whipped cream, raspberries, and chocolate shavings just before serving.
Notes
Blend Until Smooth: I blend the mousse until there are no cottage cheese lumps left and it looks completely silky.
Scrape the Sides: I stop once or twice to scrape down the blender, especially when the cocoa powder sticks around the edges.
Adjust the Sweetness: Taste the mousse after blending, and add a little more honey when you want a sweeter chocolate flavor.
Chill Before Serving: I always chill it for the full 30 minutes because the mousse becomes thicker, colder, and creamier.
