Sooo if I don’t have almond milk or cottage cheese, do you think I could sub full fat coconut milk (canned)? Haha I should probably just go to the store, huh??
I think the coconut milk would work, absolutely! Let me know how it turns out. The cottage cheese is for making them extra light and fluffy.
