Ingredients
- 1/4 cup cottage cheese
- 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder (or cacao powder)
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 pinch sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon almond milk (or any milk of choice)
- Chocolate chips (as desired)
Instructions
- In a microwave-safe dish, combine cottage cheese, chocolate protein powder, cocoa powder, maple syrup, sea salt, and baking powder. Mix until smooth.
- Gradually add almond milk, stirring until a thick batter forms. Adjust milk quantity as needed.
- Fold in chocolate chips according to your preference.
- Microwave on high for 1 minute. The brownie should be slightly firm with a gooey center.
