Chocolate Cottage Cheese Ice Cream- High Protein
Delicious creamy, high protein ice cream made from cottage cheese, honey and cocao powder!
Ingredients
- 1 cup full fat cottage cheese
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons cocao powder
- 1 bar chopped dark chocoalte
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter optional, for drizzling, but recommend!
Instructions
- In a food processor or high-speed blender, combine the cottage cheese, honey and cocao powder. Blend until smooth and creamy. (you may need to scoop down the sides in between blending).
- Add in some of the chopped chocolate and mix to combine. Place in a freezer safe container (I used glass pyrex) Add a drizzle of penut butter on top and the rest of the chopped chocolate . Put a lid on the container and place in the freezer for 3-4 hours, until it has an ice cream consitency. (slightly frozen, but still scoopable) Any longer and it will become pretty icy.
- Allow the ice cream to thaw from the freezer for 5-10 minutes. Scoop and top with more chopped chocolate and peanut butter if you like! ENJOY!
Notes
This is best when served immediately after the 3-4 hours. You can leave it in the freezer for up to a week, but you will need to let it thaw on the counter for a good 30 minutes before enjoying.
