Indulge in the Heavenly Peanut Butter Cottage Delight, a creamy, protein-packed treat with rich peanut butter, natural sweetness, and a luscious chocolate drizzle. This easy-to-make dessert is both nutritious and delicious, perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth while keeping it wholesome!
Ingredients
- 16 ounces cottage cheese (Trader Joe’s organic low-fat recommended)
- 1/3 cup creamy, unsalted peanut butter
- 1/3 cup honey (or maple syrup, or your sweetener of choice)
- 1/3 cup chocolate chips (melted; if using a chocolate bar, chop into small pieces before melting)
- 1/3 cup chopped peanuts
Instructions
Step 1: Blend to Perfection
- In a medium bowl, blend the cottage cheese, peanut butter, and honey using an immersion blender until smooth.
Step 2: Melt the Magic
- Melt the chocolate chips using a toaster oven on the “warm” setting or in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between.
- If the chocolate thickens too much, add a bit of ghee to smooth it out.
Step 3: Assemble the Bliss
- Evenly distribute the cottage cheese mixture into small serving bowls.
Step 4: Layer the Luxury
- Drizzle the melted chocolate over the top.
Step 5: Final Touch of Crunch
- Sprinkle chopped peanuts on top.
Step 6: Chill & Savor
- Refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving.
- Enjoy this creamy, protein-packed treat! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge—though they likely won’t last long!
Notes
- Want extra crunch? Add crushed pretzels or granola for texture.
- Make it dairy-free! Swap cottage cheese for blended silken tofu.
- Prefer dark chocolate? Use 70% or higher cacao chocolate chips for a richer flavor.
- Storage Tip: Keep refrigerated for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
