How can I improve my low cal protein base recipe?

Here my current chocolate base recipe for a deluxe pint:

8g SF Pudding Mix

50g 1% Cottage Cheese

1 Scoop Chocolate Whey Isolate Protien Powder

1TBSP Cocoa Powder

60g 2% Milk

1/8th tsp Guar Gum

Water to Max line

Blended using immersion blender.

It comes to about 240 calories with 39g of protein. The texture is kind of fluffy, it has a mild chocolate flavor.

I'm trying to stop using pudding mix, I tried just using more Guar gum, but it was too icy.

I want a stronger chocolate flavor and a more dense texture preferably without changing the macros too much.

Any suggestions?

Edit: Typo - I'm using guar not xantham.
