Instructions
0 Prepare to bake. Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees farenheit. Line an 8x8 baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal and set aside. 1 Mix the batter. Add the cottage cheese to a food processor or blender & pulse until smooth. Transfer the smooth cottage cheese to a mixing bowl and add peanut butter and the remaining dry ingredients, aside from the chocolate chips. Using a fork or silicone spatula, mix the batter until combined. Note that this batter will be very thick, much thicker than traditional brownie recipes. 2 Bake. Scoop the batter into the prepared pan, smooshing down with the back of a spatula until it is evenly distributed in the pan. Top the batter with chocolate chips if using and bake for 15-20 minutes for fudgy brownies or 25 minutes for cakey brownies. 3 Cool & Enjoy! Once the brownies are finished baking, leave them in the pan to cool for best results. Once they have cooled, slice into squares & enjoy.View original recipe
