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
Directions
Step 1
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.
Step 2
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.
Step 3
Add the vanilla extract and unsweetened almond milk to the cream cheese mixture, and continue mixing until fully combined.
Step 4
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.
Step 5
Once combined, taste and adjust sweetness if needed by adding a small amount of powdered erythritol, mixing gently to incorporate.
Step 6
Spoon the mousse into individual serving dishes or glasses. For a decorative touch, use a piping bag to swirl the mousse into the dishes.
Step 7
Chill the mousse in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to firm up before serving.
Step 8
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.
