Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup full-fat cottage cheese
  • 1/2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (slightly thawed if frozen)
  • 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips or chunks
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, adjust to taste)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Rinse fresh blueberries and pat dry, or allow frozen blueberries to thaw slightly. Measure out the cottage cheese, chocolate chips, vanilla extract, and optional sweetener so everything is ready for mixing.
  2. Mix Ingredients Gently: In a mixing bowl, fold the blueberries and chocolate chips gently into the cottage cheese until evenly combined. Stir in the honey or maple syrup and vanilla extract if using, taking care not to crush the blueberries.
  3. Portion the Clusters: Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, drop dollops of the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing the clusters evenly to prevent them from sticking together when frozen.
  4. Freeze Until Firm: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and freeze the clusters until solid, typically 2 to 3 hours or overnight for the best texture.
  5. Store Properly: Transfer the frozen clusters into an airtight container or freezer-safe bag for convenient grab-and-go snacking anytime.

Notes

  • Use full-fat cottage cheese for enhanced creaminess and better shape retention when frozen.
  • Fold ingredients gently to avoid breaking blueberries and to keep chocolate from melting.
  • Line your tray with parchment paper or a silicone mat to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  • Freeze clusters in a single layer before transferring to storage containers to avoid clumping.
  • Adjust sweetness with honey or maple syrup according to the natural sweetness of your blueberries.
