Description
A delicious twist on the classic Italian dessert Tiramisu, made healthier with cottage cheese for a protein boost.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup powdered erythritol or sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup strong brewed coffee, cooled
- 1 pack ladyfinger cookies or keto-friendly alternative
- Cocoa powder for dusting
Instructions
- In a large bowl, blend the cottage cheese, heavy cream, powdered erythritol, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the cooled coffee for just a second and layer them in the bottom of a serving dish.

- Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
- Dust generously with cocoa powder just before serving.
Notes
For optimal results, use full-fat cottage cheese for creaminess. Dip ladyfingers quickly to prevent sogginess.
