Servings: 2

Ingredients

Base:

• 3/4 cup old-fashioned rolled oats, ground into flour

• 3/4 cup cottage cheese

• 2 scoops Garden of Life Raw Organic Chocolate Protein Powder

• 1 tbsp cocoa powder

• 1.5 tbsp pure maple syrup

• 1 cup almond milk

• 1 tsp salt

Toppings:

• 1 cup pitted black cherries, roughly chopped

• Crushed graham crackers

• Whipped topping

Directions

1. Prepare the Base:
   In a blender or food processor, combine ground oats, cottage cheese, chocolate protein powder, cocoa powder, maple syrup, almond milk, and salt. Blend until smooth and well combined.
   
   

2. Adjust Consistency:
   If the mixture is too thick for your liking, add a little more almond milk until the desired consistency is reached. (Keep in mind, the consistency will thicken overnight!)
   
   

3. Refrigerate:
   Pour the blended mixture into a storage container. Cover and refrigerate overnight to allow the base to thicken.
   
   

4. Assemble the Cups:
   In the morning (or once set), layer the thickened chocolate cheesecake base with chopped cherries, a dollop of whipped topping, and a sprinkle of crushed graham crackers in serving cups or bowls.
   
   

5. Enjoy:
   Dig in and enjoy a delicious, protein-packed treat that tastes like dessert but fuels your body!
