Notes

Try serving these warm cookies with keto-friendly ice cream for a dessert that feels extra special and indulgent., Blend cottage cheese well to avoid lumps and create a creamy dough., Do not overmix the dough to maintain chewy texture., Chill dough for 20-30 minutes if too sticky to handle., Remove cookies when edges are golden but centers are still soft for perfect chewiness.
