Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by crushing 1 cup of graham crackers in a food processor or by placing them in a plastic bag and using a rolling pin until they resemble sandy crumbs with some texture. Divide the crust evenly into four serving bowls, pressing it firmly at the bottom.
  2. In a blender, combine 2 cups of cottage cheese, ½ cup of fresh lime juice, 1 tablespoon of lime zest, and 2 tablespoons of honey. Blend on high until smooth for about 30 seconds, then scrape down the sides. Continue blending for an additional 30 seconds for a creamy texture.
  3. Carefully pour the creamy lime mixture over each graham cracker crust in the serving bowls. Use a spatula to ensure each bowl is evenly filled.
  4. Refrigerate the bowls for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to meld and filling to set. For a quicker option, freeze for 20 minutes but do not let them freeze solid.
  5. Once chilled, garnish with fresh mint or extra lime zest and serve. Enjoy this guilt-free treat!
