Chocolate Cottage Cheese Ice Cream (ice cream)
This Chocolate Cottage Cheese Ice Cream is a delicious healthy treat for summer.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 16 oz container cottage cheese (preferably full fat)
- ¼-1/3 cup honey I used ¼ cup and found it sweet enough but taste and add enough sweetener to your palette!
- ¼ cup cacao powder
- 2 tablespoons almond butter cashew butter or peanut butter also work - peanut imparts a stronger flavor
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- flaky sea salt to taste optional
Instructions
- Add cottage cheese, cacao, almond butter, vanilla and honey to a food processor or blender. Blend until smooth.
- Add ice cream to a loaf pan or container and freeze for 2-3 hours until set.
- Serve ice cream topping with flaky sea salt if desired.
Notes
This makes 2-3 servings of ice cream.
This ice cream will come out very hard after sitting in the freezer for more than a few hours, to combat this let it sit out for 30 minutes or so to soften.
