Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 4 oz Cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons Powdered erythritol (or keto-friendly powdered sweetener)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to whip the heavy whipping cream until it forms stiff peaks. Set aside.
In another bowl, add the cream cheese (at room temperature to make it easier to mix), powdered erythritol, and a pinch of salt. Beat the ingredients using a mixer until smooth and creamy.
Add the vanilla extract and unsweetened almond milk to the cream cheese mixture, and continue mixing until fully combined.
Gently fold the whipped heavy cream into the cream cheese mixture. Do this in batches to avoid deflating the whipped cream and to maintain a light, fluffy texture.
Once combined, taste and adjust sweetness if needed by adding a small amount of powdered erythritol, mixing gently to incorporate.
Spoon the mousse into individual serving dishes or glasses. For a decorative touch, use a piping bag to swirl the mousse into the dishes.
Chill the mousse in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to firm up before serving.
Optional: Garnish with a sprinkle of cocoa powder, a few fresh berries (if your keto plan allows it), or a small dollop of whipped cream.
