Ingredients

Cheesecake base
566g cottage cheese (any kind; I used 2% Daisy)

1 oz (28g) sugar-free instant pudding mix (cheesecake flavor; vanilla works too)

14g freeze-dried strawberries, crushed (use more for a bolder strawberry flavor)

Low calorie chocolate sauce

• 15g cocoa powder
• 45g sugar-free syrup (I use Great Value sugar-free pancake syrup)
• 1 oz (about 30g) water (add more or less to get the thickness you want)

How to make it

Chill or eat immediately

Blend the cottage cheese: Blend until completely smooth.

Make the cheesecake base: Whisk in the pudding mix & crushed freeze-dried strawberries.

Mix the chocolate sauce: Stir cocoa powder + sugar-free syrup + water until smooth. Add a tiny splash more water if you want it thinner.

Assemble: Divide the cheesecake mixture into containers, then pour the chocolate sauce on top.
