Cottage Cheese Chocolate Mousse

This cottage cheese chocolate mousse is a lighter, high-protein twist on traditional chocolate mousse. Instead of being made with cream, eggs and lots of sugar, I use blended cottage cheese as the base. When whipped smooth with cocoa powder, peanut butter and maple syrup, the cottage cheese creates the perfect creamy, yet light mousse-like texture.
