Ingredients
- 1 cup cottage cheese (full-fat for the creamiest texture)
- 1/4 cup peanut butter (creamy, natural, no sugar added)
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/8 teaspoon table salt (optional)
- 1–2 tablespoons milk or heavy cream (if needed)
- Toppings: Chopped almonds, dark chocolate curls, drizzle of extra almond butter
Blend the Base
Add the cottage cheese, almond butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and table salt to a high-speed blender or food processor. Blend on high for 30 to 60 seconds until it is completely smooth and creamy.
Adjust Consistency
If the mousse is too thick, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of milk or cream and blend again until it reaches your preferred texture.
Chill for Best Texture
Transfer the mousse to a bowl and refrigerate for 15 to 20 minutes. This helps to set and deepen the flavors.
Serve & Garnish
Spoon the mousse into serving bowls and top with chopped almonds, dark chocolate curls, or a drizzle of extra almond butter.
