Lemon Cottage Cheese Mousse

 Very tart initially.  Will see how they taste after an hour in the fridge.  Nick added some blueberries to part of the mixture, to see if it would be less tangy with them.  They made the mixture very runny, though.  The Vitamix was the only appliance that got the mousse creamy and smooth.

High Protein Coffee Cottage Cheese Mousse

 Good but the coffee flavor and the sweetness really intensified when it was in the fridge.  It was too strong and it made me very jittery.  I'd like to try again using less coffee and honey, and trying Mount Hagen decaf.

Made it again using 1 Tbsp coffee and 3 Tbsp honey.  It's chilling now.  Result: The coffee taste was less intense, and although 4 Tbsp honey was too sweet, 3 Tbsp didn't taste sweet enough.  This version never thickened, even after 24 hours.

3/4 cup cottage cheese
1/4 cup half & half
1.5 tbsp Mount Hagen freeze-dried coffee, powdered
1/4 cup honey (more if you want it more sweet)

Blend cottage cheese, half & half, coffee powder, and honey in a blender until smooth.
Transfer to a small bowl. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

**********************************************

The small blender couldn't handle this, and the small food processor didn't get it very creamy.  I used 24 drops of liquid 100% monk fruit, and it was still quite bitter.  

1/2 c Daisy cottage cheese
1/2 – 1 dropperful SweetLeaf hazelnut stevia (or vanilla creme/chocolate/english toffee)
1 t instant coffee 

Directions:

1. Combine cottage cheese, stevia, and 3/4 t instant coffee in mini chopper or food processor (or more, if desired)
2. Process until fluffy 
3. Transfer to bowl
4. Sprinkle remaining instant coffee on top

Blueberry Cottage Cheese Mousse *****

 

I really enjoyed this.  I subbed 1 tsp vanilla for the lemon zest.  I used the blender, rather than the food processor.

• 2 cups cottage cheese
• 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
• 1/4 cup honey 
• 1 tsp vanilla

In a blender or food processor, combine cottage cheese, blueberries, honey, and vanilla. Blend until smooth and creamy.

Spoon the mousse into four serving glasses.

Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.
