Ingredients

1 1/2 cups whipped cottage cheese See notes
1 cup almond butter
1 cup cocoa powder
2/3 cup + 2 tablespoons sugar

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Line an 8 x 8-inch pan with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the whipped cottage cheese, cocoa powder, almond butter, and sugar until smooth and glossy. If adding chocolate or chocolate chips, fold them through.
Transfer the brownie batter into the lined pan. Top with extra chocolate chips.
Bake the brownies for 25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out mostly clean.
Let the brownies cool in the pan completely before slicing.

Notes

* I like to use whipped cottage cheese as it mixes seamlessly into the batter. You can use any cottage cheese and blend it until smooth.

I added 1/2 cup chopped chocolate to the batter. Feel free to add up to one cup of your favorite mix-ins.
