Ingredients

Ice Cream

⅝ cup (130 g) cottage cheese, 4%
⅓ cup (40 g) frozen raspberries, or strawberries
½ tablespoon honey
½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Toppings

1 tablespoon (10 g) dark chocolate chips
¼ teaspoon coconut oil
some freeze-dried raspberries, optional

Instructions

Blend cottage cheese, frozen raspberries, honey, and vanilla extract using an immersion blender.
Spoon the mixture into your popsicle molds and smooth the surface.
Freeze for at least 4 hours or until solid.
Melt the chocolate and coconut oil together over a water bath.
Once the popsicles are fully frozen, drizzle them with the melted chocolate and immediately sprinkle with crushed freeze-dried raspberries before the chocolate sets. Enjoy
Let the chocolate set for a moment, then enjoy right away or place the popsicles back in the freezer. If they've been in the freezer for a longer time, let them sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes before serving so they’re not too icy.

Notes

Popsicle Mold: I use this mini silicone popsicle mold. Each mold holds 1.25 ounces. If you're using a larger mold, you'll need to adjust the measurements accordingly.
Raspberries: You can make these popsicles with raspberries or strawberries – both work great! I prefer using frozen berries, but fresh ones will also do the trick.
Sweetness: If you like it a bit sweeter, use 1 tablespoon of honey. Feel free to taste the mixture after blending and add more sweetener if needed.
Topping: Totally optional, but so good with the chocolate! You could even dip the entire popsicle in chocolate – just keep in mind that this will turn your 63-calorie treat into a roughly 200-calorie indulgence.
