Add full-fat cottage cheese, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, salt, and lemon juice to a high-powered blender or food processor. Blend until completely smooth with no lumps, about 2 minutes, and the mixture should look thick and uniform.

Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness if needed. Stop when the flavor matches your preference, keeping the texture smooth.

Pour the blended mixture into a freezer-safe container. Freeze for 4 hours until firm enough to scoop.

Let the container sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before scooping. The surface should soften slightly so the scoop holds its shape.

Scoop into bowls and top with fresh berries or chocolate chips. Serve immediately after adding toppings.
