  • 45 ml maple syrup or honey adjust to taste
  • 5 ml vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 15 ml milk or almond milk optional, for blending

Method
 

  1. Add the cottage cheese to a blender or food processor.
  2. Add the cocoa powder, maple syrup or honey, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
  3. Blend for 30–60 seconds until the mixture becomes completely smooth and creamy.
  4. Stop and scrape down the sides of the blender with a spatula if needed, then blend again briefly until fully smooth.
  5. Taste the mousse and adjust sweetness if desired by adding a little more maple syrup or honey.

Notes

For an even richer flavor, let the mousse chill for longer before serving. You can also top with fresh berries or whipped cream for added indulgence.
