Cottage Cheese Peanut Butter Mousse
This mousse came to life during a late-night kitchen wander. I was craving something indulgent, yet nourishing—and voilà! It’s rich like peanut butter pie, but secretly packed with protein. Great for dessert, snack, or even breakfast (yes, really!). Once you blend it, you won’t believe it’s cottage cheese.
