  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • ¼ cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For Garnish

  • Fresh raspberries
  • Mint leaves

Instructions

  1. Blend Ingredients: Combine the cottage cheese, fresh raspberries, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract in a blender or food processor. Blend the mixture until it becomes smooth and creamy, ensuring a luscious mousse texture without any lumps.
  2. Portion: Spoon the blended mousse evenly into four serving glasses or bowls, preparing the dessert for individual servings.
  3. Chill: Place the filled glasses in the refrigerator and chill for at least 1 hour. This step allows the flavors to meld together and helps the mousse firm up to the perfect consistency.

Notes

  • You can substitute honey with maple syrup for a vegan-friendly option.
  • Ensure the cottage cheese is well-drained if very watery to avoid a runny mousse.
  • This mousse can be prepared ahead and refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
  • For added texture, sprinkle crushed nuts or granola on top before serving.
  • Fresh raspberries are preferable for garnish for best taste and appearance.
