  • 1 cup cottage cheese Can blend for a smoother texture.
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder (unsweetened)
  • 1/3 cup honey or maple syrup Agave nectar can be used as a substitute.

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine cottage cheese, cocoa powder, honey, oats, vanilla extract, and salt.

  3. If desired, fold in the chocolate chips or nuts for extra flavor.

  5. Arrange them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

Notes

These bites are delightful on their own, but you can get creative with serving presentations. Pair with fresh fruit for a refreshing contrast. For a smoother texture, consider blending the cottage cheese before mixing.
