In a mixing bowl, whisk together the whole eggs, egg whites, cottage cheese, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Melt the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Pour in the egg mixture and let it sit for a few seconds. Gently push the eggs across the pan with a spatula, forming large soft curds, for 4 to 5 minutes until the eggs are mostly set but still look slightly moist. Done when set but still soft, 160°F.
Sprinkle the cheddar cheese over the eggs and fold gently until the cheese is just melted, about 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat.
Transfer the scramble to a plate and top with the chopped chives.
