Special Notes

These healthy brownies use cottage cheese for added protein and moisture. The almond flour keeps them gluten-free while the honey provides natural sweetness. The cottage cheese creates a fudgy texture without the need for butter or oil. These brownies are perfect for those looking for a healthier dessert option. Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
