Ingredients
Scale
- 16 oz Full-fat cottage cheese (4% milkfat is best for creaminess)
- 2 tbsp Honey, maple syrup, or a liquid keto sweetener (like Allulose)
- 1 tsp Pure vanilla extract
- Optional: 1/4 cup mix-ins (chocolate chips, crushed nuts, or berries)
Instructions
- Add the entire container of cottage cheese, your sweetener of choice, and the vanilla extract into a high-speed blender or food processor. Blend on high for 30 to 60 seconds until the mixture is completely smooth and no lumps remain. The consistency should look exactly like thick yogurt or melted ice cream.
- Once the base is smooth, pour it back into the original cottage cheese container or a shallow freezer-safe dish. If you want to add chocolate chips, fruit, or nuts, fold them in gently with a spoon. You can also swirl in some peanut butter or cocoa powder at this stage for extra flavor depth.
- Cover the container and place it in the freezer. Let it set for about 2 to 3 hours. For the best texture, take a spoon and stir the mixture every 30 minutes to break up ice crystals. Once it reaches a soft-serve consistency, scoop it out and enjoy immediately. If you freeze it overnight, let it thaw on the counter for 15 minutes before scooping.
