You can either use a food processor or blender to whip your cottage cheese.
Blend the cottage cheese for 30 seconds to one minute, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a spatula until a smooth texture is reached.
Add the honey, and blend until combined with the whipped cottage cheese.
Enjoy

Serve as an alternative to Greek yogurt, or cream cheese. It is actually lovely smeared on a bagel with berries or sliced banana.
You can also flavor your whipped cottage cheese with vanilla extract or cinnamon,
Make a dessert by layering it with berries. Raspberries, strawberries and blueberries all taste nice with it.
I will often top it with an extra drizzle of honey and some chopped nuts or a few chocolate chips to make it even more tempting for my kids.
Store your whipped cottage cheese dip in an airtight container in the fridge for up to four days.
When I make this I find my blender gives a smoother more velvety texture than my food processor, although the food processor is quicker.
Cottage cheese: I find full-fat cottage cheese makes a much more delicious dip. You could use ricotta, but because you blend the cheese you end up with a similar result, cottage cheese is higher in protein and more economical.
Honey*:Any sweetener will work, I have used both maple syrup and stevia in the post both to great success.

* if you are making this recipe for a baby under 1 year of age, please do not use honey as the sweetener.
