Ingredients

1 cup cottage cheese
½ cup monk fruit sweetener or other low carb sweetener
1 scoop chocolate protein powder
⅓ cup cocoa powder
2 large eggs
¼ cup unsweetened chocolate chips
½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Place all the ingredients into a blender or food processor and blitz until smooth. If the mixture is too thick, add some almond or coconut milk.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean.
Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

Makes 9 squares.

Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before cutting. This helps them set and makes it easier to cut clean slices.
