Ingredients
  

Cheese Base
  • 1 cup full-fat cottage cheese The star of the show, creamy ingredient for moisture.
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese Adds salty, nutty flavor.
Spices
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder Introduces warm aroma.
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder Adds sweetness and mildness.
  • 1/2 tsp paprika Adds heat and color.
  • 1/4 tsp salt Elevates the other flavors.
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper Provides a balancing kick.
Optional Garnish
  • 1 tbsp fresh herbs (like parsley or chives) For added freshness and color.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, grated Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir until thoroughly blended.
  3. Scoop small dollops of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spaced about an inch apart. Flatten each dollop slightly with the back of the spoon.
Cooking
  1. Bake for 15-20 minutes until edges are golden brown and crispy. Watch closely to avoid burning.
  2. Allow chips to cool on the sheet for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serving
  1. Sprinkle fresh herbs on top if desired, and enjoy the crispy chips!

Notes

Tips to ensure crispiness: space dollops adequately, flatten them slightly, and monitor baking time closely. Store leftovers in an airtight container for 1-2 days.
