Preparation Steps
Add the cottage cheese, honey, and vanilla extract to a high-speed food processor. Process on high until thick and creamy, about 3-5 minutes.
Add 1 cup of blackberries to the food processor and pulse just until the berries are broken up and combined, turning the mixture a light purple.
Pour the mixture into a bowl or loaf pan. Crumble two graham cracker sheets on top and gently fold them into the mixture until combined.
Top with remaining blackberries and crumble the last graham cracker over the top. Optionally sprinkle flakey salt.
Cover and freeze for at least 4-6 hours or overnight until firm.
Serve chilled in bowls or on ice cream cones.
Notes
This no-churn cottage cheese ice cream is perfect for a healthy dessert with added protein. Use full-fat cottage cheese for best creaminess. Adjust honey to your sweetness preference.
