Instructions

 

• Add cottage cheese, honey, vanilla and almond butter to a blender and blend until smooth.
• Pour cottage cheese mixture into 1 inch layers in individual slots in a silicone muffin pan. Alternatively, you can use a tin muffin pan with liners. I made 10 evenly sized ice cream bites.
• Freeze cottage cheese mixture for 1-hours, until hard and frozen.
• Once cottage cheese pieces are frozen, melt together chocolate chips and coconut oil. I melted mine in 4 30 second intervals in the microwave, stirring after each interval.
• Dunk each ice cream piece in chocolate and fully coat with chocolate. Add each bite to a sheet pan or plate lined with parchment paper. Freeze for about 5 more minutes, until chocolate is set.
• Extra bites can be stored in a sealed container in your fridge for up to a week. If your teeth are sensitive like mine, let the bites sit out for 10 minutes to thaw out before eating.

Notes

This makes 10 ice cream bites.
