Description

Cottage Cheese Protein Brownies: a fudgy, chocolatey, high-protein treat that tastes indulgent yet fuels your body. Blended cottage cheese creates a creamy base, then chocolate protein powder, almond flour, and cocoa deliver rich flavor without sacrificing nutrition. Sweetened with a zero-calorie option, they stay moist and satisfying, perfect for post-workout snacks, meal prep, or healthier dessert cravings. This recipe yields 16 servings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup chocolate protein powder
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/3 cup zero-calorie sweetener or maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • Optional: sugar-free chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. Blend cottage cheese until completely smooth.
  3. In a bowl, whisk blended cottage cheese, eggs, sweetener, and vanilla until combined.
  4. Stir in protein powder, almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until smooth.
  5. Fold in chocolate chips if using.
  6. Pour batter into prepared pan and spread evenly.
  7. Bake for 25–30 minutes, until set but still fudgy in the center.
  8. Let cool completely before slicing for best texture.

Notes

  • For extra fudgy brownies, slightly underbake and cool completely in pan.
  • Use full-fat cottage cheese for a richer flavor or swap with low-fat if you prefer lighter.
  • If batter is too thick, add a tablespoon of milk or water.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for longer.
