Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups cottage cheese or plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup or honey + 1 tbsp
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder + 1 tbsp
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • 1 cup chocolate and vanilla cookies crushed

Instructions

Blend the Chocolate Base

  • In a high-speed blender, combine cottage cheese, cocoa powder, maple syrup (or honey), vanilla, and salt. Blend until completely smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust sweetness, if desired.

Freeze

  • Pour the mixture into popsicle molds, insert sticks, and freeze for 2–3 hours or until fully solid.

Coat & Crumble

  • Let the popsicles thaw for 4 minutes. Remove popsicles from the molds. Immediately roll or press into crushed cookies. If not sticking, lightly spray with water. Place on a parchment-lined tray and return to the freezer for 10–15 minutes to set.
