Ingredients
  

For the Mousse

  • 1/2 cup Creamy Peanut Butter or substitute with almond or cashew butter

  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract always choose pure extract for the best taste
  • 1-2 tablespoons Unsweetened Cocoa Powder optional for a chocolatey twist
  • 1/4 cup Milk (dairy or plant-based) to adjust the consistency

Method
 

Directions
  1. Blend the Base: Combine cottage cheese, creamy peanut butter, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract in a blender. Blend everything until it's smooth and creamy—this usually takes about 1-2 minutes.
  2. Add Cocoa Powder (Optional): If you're feeling adventurous, blend in unsweetened cocoa powder for a chocolaty delight. Also, drizzle in a splash of milk to adjust the consistency to your liking.
  3. Chill the Mousse: Spoon the mixture into serving bowls—about 4 portions is ideal. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the mousse to set and flavors to meld beautifully.
  4. Serve and Enjoy: Garnish with sliced bananas or a drizzle of peanut butter for that extra special touch. Dig in and relish every creamy bite!
