Instructions

Preheat your oven to 325°F and grease an 8×8 inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
Blend cottage cheese, eggs, vanilla extract, maple syrup, and sugar in a blender until smooth, about 60-90 seconds.
In a separate bowl, whisk almond flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until well mixed.
Pour the blended wet ingredients into the dry mixture and gently fold together with a spatula until just combined.
Fold in the chocolate chips, then pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Bake for 18-22 minutes until the top is set and a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs. Let cool for 5 minutes before cutting into squares.

Notes

Using a blender ensures a smooth batter with a cake-like texture.
Baking at a lower temperature helps prevent the edges from drying out before the center is fully cooked.
Reserve a few chocolate chips to place on top for a pleasing presentation.
