STEP 1
Trim the ends from each cucumber. Using a vegetable peeler, peel three evenly-spaced strips of peel from each cucumber. Cut each cucumber crosswise into nine 1-inch thick slices. To make cups, use a teaspoon to remove the seeds from the center of each piece of cucumber; avoid scooping through to the bottom. Reserve.

STEP 2
Place cottage cheese, sour cream, black pepper, and hot sauce in a medium bowl and mix until well combined. Spoon equal amounts of the cottage cheese mixture into cucumber cups. Sprinkle with equal amounts of bacon pieces.
