Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients

  • 1½ cup All Purpose Flour
  • ½ cup Cocoa Powder
  • 1½ teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ½ teaspoon Baking Soda
  • ¼ teaspoon Salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup Cottage Cheese
  • 2 large Eggs
  • ½ cup Brown Sugar
  • ¼ cup Canola Oil
  • ½ cup Milk
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla
  • ½ cup Chocolate Chips

Instructions
 

  • Start by preheating the oven to 375F and lining a muffin tray with liners, either paper or silicone.
  • Whisk together in a smaller bowl, the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • Use a stick blender of food processor to blend the cottage cheese, as smooth as possible.
  • Transfer the blended cottage cheese to a large mixing bowl. Add the brown sugar and eggs to the cottage cheese and whisk until smooth.
  • Pour the milk, vanilla, and canola oil into the wet ingredients and mix until incorporated.
  • Add all of the dry ingredients and the chocolate chips, to the wet ingredients. Use a rubber spatula to fold the the batter until there is no more dry flour mixture. Make sure to not overmix the batter.
  • Divide the batter between the 12 prepared muffin cavities. Notice that the batter should almost fill each liner. Place a couple of extra chocolate chips or shaved baking chocolate on top for an optional boost of chocolate.
  • Bake the Chocolate Cottage Cheese Muffins in the preheated 375F oven for 20-25 minutes. The muffins are ready when a toothpick, inserted in the middle comes out clean. Cool the muffins or 10-15 minutes to help them set before eating.
