Ingredients

Servings
  • 2/3 cup cottage cheese
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup honey maple syrup
  • 2 large egg
  • ¼ cup coconut sugar or brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp instant coffee
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder unsweetened
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips plus 2 tbsp to garnish, mini

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F and line an 8x8 pan with parchment paper.
  2. Add the 2/3 cup cottage cheese, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 2 large eggs, 1 tbsp instant coffee, and ¼ cup honey in a blender. Blend until smooth.
  3. In a medium bowl, add the ¼ cup coconut sugar or brown sugar, 1 cup almond flour, 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Using a spatula, mix to combine.
  4. Pour the blended cottage cheese mixture over the dry almond flour mix. Mix to incorporate.
  5. Fold in the 1/4 cup mini dark chocolate chips and mix again to combine. Transfer to the prepared 8x8 pan.
  6. Top with additional chocolate chips if you like, and bake for 22-25 minutes or until the toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Allow the brownies to cool for 15-20 minutes before cutting and serving.

Notes

  • Do allow the brownies to cool for a good 15 minutes to 20 minutes before cutting and serving.
  • Consider swapping some of the almond flour for equal amounts of chocolate whey protein powder. 
  • Store in a container in the fridge for up to 7 days.
