Frozen Cottage Cheese Bark
Description
This recipe blends whole milk cottage cheese with honey and peanut butter to create a creamy base with balanced sweetness and nutty, rich tones. Spreading this mixture evenly onto parchment-lined baking sheets produces a thin, firm layer after freezing for several hours. Dollops of melted chocolate chips are swirled into the surface, creating marbled chocolate pockets. Granola sprinkled on top adds crunch and contrast to the creamy texture.
The freezing process solidifies the bark, resulting in a firm but not hard texture that breaks apart easily. The combination of creamy cottage cheese and crunchy granola layered with swirled chocolate provides a mix of smoothness, sweetness, and texture.
This bark can be cut or broken into 16-20 pieces and stored frozen in an airtight container or bag for up to three months. It serves as a cold snack or dessert option, especially suited to warm weather or when a refrigerated creamy treat is desired.
Ingredients
- 2 cups (16 oz) cottage cheese I used Good Culture whole milk
- 2 Tablespoons honey
- 2 Tablespoons peanut butter
- 3 Tablespoons chocolate chips I used Lily's chocolate chips
- 3 Tablespoons granola of choice
Instructions
- In a blender or food processor, blend together cottage cheese, honey and peanut butter until smooth.
- Pour mixture onto a rimmed baking sheet line with parchment paper and spread evenly using a spatula or spoon into a rectangular shape. You want the bark to be about a ¼ of an inch thick.
- Melt chocolate chips and add teaspoon size dollops onto the cottage cheese layer. Use a knife to swirl the chocolate around.
- Sprinkle the granola on top and place the bark in the freezer for about 3 hours or until the cottage cheese is firm.
- Once firm, cut or break into 16-20 pieces and enjoy.
- Store leftover bark in a sealed freezer bag or airtight container for up to 3 months.
