Add the cottage cheese (or Greek yogurt), raspberries, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to a blender. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
Transfer the blended mixture to a bowl. Add the chia seeds and stir thoroughly until they are well combined with the raspberry mixture.
Cover the bowl and place it in the fridge for at least 3 hours, or ideally overnight, to allow the chia pudding to set and thicken.
Once set, divide the pudding into two servings. Optionally, top each serving with a dollop of yogurt and sprinkle with crushed graham crackers for an authentic cheesecake experience.
For a thicker pudding, add an extra tablespoon of chia seeds and let it set for a longer period.
If you don't have fresh raspberries, frozen raspberries work just as well. Just make sure to thaw them slightly before blending.
Experiment with other berries like blueberries or strawberries for different flavour variations.
