Description
Cottage Cheese Fudge is a rich, creamy, no-bake dessert made with just three simple ingredients: cottage cheese, dark chocolate chips, and coconut oil. Packed with protein, this healthy treat satisfies your sweet tooth while offering a nutritious twist on classic fudge.
Ingredients
- 1 cup cottage cheese (any fat percentage)
- ½ cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
Instructions
- Melt the Chocolate:
- Combine dark chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 1-minute intervals, stirring each time, until fully melted and smooth.
- Blend the Cottage Cheese:
- Add cottage cheese to a food processor and process until smooth. Scrape down the sides as needed for an even consistency.
- Combine Mixtures:
- Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the food processor with the cottage cheese. Blend until fully combined, ensuring the mixture is smooth and uniform.
- Prepare the Pan:
- Line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
- Freeze the Fudge:
- Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Freeze for 4 hours or until firm.
- Cut and Serve:
- Remove the fudge from the pan using the parchment paper. Cut into 8 squares. Let the fudge sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving for the best texture and flavor.
Notes
- Use sugar-free chocolate chips for a low-sugar option.
- Experiment with flavors by adding extracts such as vanilla, almond, or peppermint.
