Cottage Cheese Tiramisu
The real deal tiramisu β€” ladyfingers soaked in coffee and KahlΓΊa, layered with a silky protein cream made from blended cottage cheese, egg yolks, and almond extract, finished with a dusting of dark cocoa powder. 10g of protein per slice, fewer calories than the traditional version, and ready in 20 minutes. The cottage cheese disappears completely β€” you'd never know it's in there.

πŸ§€ about cottage cheese
1 cup of cottage cheese = ~25g of protein, ~180 calories. The secret weapon: when you blend it smooth, the texture becomes silky and the mild flavor disappears into whatever you're making. It replaces butter, cream, mascarpone, and mayo in recipes without losing richness β€” and adds protein instead.
β†’ Blend into desserts instead of mascarpone or cream cheese
β†’ Stir into scrambled eggs or baked egg dishes for extra protein
β†’ Swap for ricotta in pasta, doughs, and baked goods
β†’ Use as a base for sauces, dressings, and dips
