Protein Fudgy Ice Cream Bars (Edit recipe)

This 3 ingredient, high protein treat is perfect to satisfy your sweet tooth while still getting in a good amount of protein. I promise you do not taste the cottage cheese. This texture is creamy and is somehow a cross between fudge and ice cream. You need to make this! I have added optional sweeteners in the notes, however I never have needed to add them.

Notes

If you think this needs to be sweeter, you can add 2-3 TBS of monk fruit, maple syrup, or sweetener of choice. If you're using sweetened chocolate chips, you shouldn't need to add this but make sure you taste some before you freeze it and see if you want to add more sweetener 🙂
