Ingredients
Scale
Main Mixture
- ½ cup cottage cheese
- 1 tbsp cocoa powder
- ½ tbsp honey (or maple syrup)
Toppings
- 2 tbsp crushed graham crackers
- 1 tbsp mini chocolate chips
- 2 tbsp mini marshmallows
- ½ tbsp melted chocolate (for drizzling)
Instructions
- Mix the Base: In a bowl, combine the cottage cheese, cocoa powder, and honey. Mix thoroughly until fully combined. For an ultra-smooth texture, blend the mixture in a food processor for 10–15 seconds to achieve a creamy consistency.
- Assemble the Bowl: Spoon the creamy chocolate cottage cheese mixture into your serving bowl carefully to maintain its smoothness.
- Add Crushed Graham Crackers: Sprinkle the crushed graham crackers evenly over the top of the cottage cheese mixture to add a delightful crunchy texture reminiscent of traditional s’mores.
- Top with Chocolate Chips and Marshmallows: Scatter the mini chocolate chips and mini marshmallows over the graham crackers to add sweetness and gooeyness to your dessert.
- Drizzle Melted Chocolate: Drizzle melted chocolate over the toppings for an extra layer of decadent chocolate flavor and visual appeal.
- Toast the Marshmallows: For an authentic s’mores experience, use a kitchen torch to lightly toast the marshmallows until golden brown. Alternatively, place the bowl under a broiler for a few seconds, watching closely to prevent burning.
- Serve Immediately: Enjoy your Cottage Cheese S’mores Bowl right away to experience the contrast of creamy, crunchy, melty, and toasted flavors.
Notes
- You can substitute honey with maple syrup for a vegan-friendly option.
- Blending the cottage cheese mixture ensures a smooth texture but is optional if you prefer a bit more texture.
- Use a kitchen torch carefully to avoid burning the marshmallows; alternatively, broil just long enough to toast.
- For a lower sugar version, reduce or omit the honey and use sugar-free chocolate chips.
- To make it gluten-free, use gluten-free graham crackers.
