Blend the Cottage Cheese. Add the cottage cheese to a blender or food processor. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
Add Remaining Ingredients. Add the frozen blueberries, powdered erythritol, vanilla extract, heavy cream, lemon juice, and lemon zest to the blended cottage cheese. Blend again until well combined. You can pulse for a chunkier texture or fully blend for a smoother finish.
Taste and Adjust. Taste the mixture. Add more sweetener or lemon juice if desired.
Freeze. Transfer the mixture to a freezer-safe container. Smooth the surface and cover tightly.
Chill Until Firm. Freeze for 3–4 hours, or until firm enough to scoop.
Serve. Let sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly, then scoop and enjoy!
