1 1/2

Instructions
Mash the cottage cheese with a fork in a small bowl until mostly smooth, or blend a larger batch ahead of time and use 2 tablespoons.
In a large microwave-safe mug, melt the butter. Whisk in the egg, mashed cottage cheese and vanilla until smooth.
Add the almond flour, cocoa powder, sweetener, baking powder and salt. Stir well until no dry pockets remain.
Fold in the chocolate chips and press a few extra on top.
Microwave on high for 70 to 90 seconds, until the top is set but still slightly glossy in the very center.
Let it rest for 1 minute so it finishes cooking and the texture turns soft and fudgy. Enjoy warm, with whipped cream if you like.
