This Salted Caramel Cottage Cheese Ice Cream is a creamy, luscious, no-churn frozen treat packed with protein and sweet-salty caramel goodness. Made with blended cottage cheese, it’s surprisingly rich and velvety, with a satisfying cheesecake-like tang.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups cottage cheese (full fat for creamier texture)

• ½ cup salted caramel sauce (plus extra for drizzling)

• 2-3 tbsp honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• Pinch of sea salt (optional, for extra salted caramel vibes)

Instructions:

1. Blend:

   • In a blender or food processor, blend cottage cheese, caramel sauce, honey, vanilla, and a pinch of sea salt until completely smooth and creamy.

2. Taste & Adjust:

   • Taste the mixture. Add more caramel or sweetener if desired.

3. Freeze:

   • Pour the mixture into a loaf pan or freezer-safe container.

   • Drizzle extra caramel sauce over the top and swirl it with a knife.

   • Freeze for at least 3-4 hours or until firm.

4. Serve:

   • Let sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before scooping for the best texture.

   • Top with a drizzle of caramel and a sprinkle of sea salt if you like.

Tips:

• For extra texture, add crushed pretzels, toffee bits, or chocolate chips before freezing.

• Use high-quality caramel for the best flavor.
