1 cup chocolate chips (or more!)

OPTIONAL: fresh mint (for garnish)

Combine the cottage cheese, maple syrup, vanilla, peppermint, and spirulina (optional) in a blender.

Blend until smooth, then pour into a container with an airtight lid and freeze for 1 hour.

Mix in the chocolate chips, then add the lid back on and freeze for another 3-5 hours.

Remove from the freezer and let thaw for 15-20 minutes on the countertop.

Break it up with a spoon, then give it a good mix.

Scoop, add extra chocolate chips, and enjoy!
