TikTok Viral Cottage Cheese Protein Brownies

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a 9×9 inch square baking pan with parchment paper or grease it well. Set aside.

Step 2

Add the cottage cheese to a blender or food processor and process until smooth. Scrape down the sides as needed to ensure all the cottage cheese is creamy and smooth.

Step 3

To the blended cottage cheese, add the 4 large eggs, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Blend or process until well combined.

Step 4

Add the protein powder, unsweetened cocoa powder, coconut flour, sweetener, and baking powder to the blender or food processor with the wet ingredients. Blend until a smooth batter forms, scraping down the sides if necessary.

Step 5

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.

Step 6

Sprinkle the chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate evenly over the top of the batter.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-22 minutes, or until the top looks set and is firm to the touch. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with a few moist crumbs, but not wet batter.

Step 8

Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. Enjoy!
