In a blender or food processor, combine the cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, maple syrup (or honey), vanilla extract, and instant espresso powder. Blend until smooth and creamy.

Transfer the mousse mixture to a bowl or individual serving cups and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to chill and thicken.

Notes
-
For a dairy-free version, use dairy-free yogurt and plant-based cottage cheese.
-
Substitute maple syrup or honey with a sugar-free sweetener like stevia or monk fruit for a low-carb option.
-
For more coffee flavor, increase the amount of espresso powder.
-
Add a drizzle of sugar-free chocolate syrup or mix in mini chocolate chips for a chocolatey twist.
