Ingredients
1 cup cottage cheese
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup granulated monk fruit or erythritol
1/2 cup almond flour
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup sugar-free chocolate chips (plus extra for topping)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine cottage cheese, eggs, and vanilla. Whisk until smooth (blend cottage cheese first if a smoother texture is preferred).
3. Stir in monk fruit, almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until fully combined.
4. Fold in chocolate chips, reserving a few for topping.
5. Spread batter evenly in the pan and sprinkle remaining chips on top.
6. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs.
7. Cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
For a smoother batter, blend the cottage cheese before mixing to eliminate curds.
You can add 1–2 tablespoons of almond milk if your batter is too thick.
Add chopped walnuts or a pinch of espresso powder for a fun twist on flavor.
