Ingredients You’ll Need
• 1 cup heavy whipping cream.
• ¼ cup cream cheese, which is already softened.
• From 2 tbsp of powdered erythritol or stevia sweeter (or to taste).
• ½ Tbsp of vanilla extract.
• Optional: 1 tbsp of unsweetened cocoa powder to prepare chocolate mousse.
How to Make Creamy Mousse for Keto Diet
1. Whip the Cream: In a mixing bowl, using an electric mixer, combine the cream until soft peaks are formed and set aside.
2. Another bowl should contain the softened cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla. Blend these together until smooth. During this step, additional unsweetened cocoa powder can be used to enhance the chocolate flavor of the mousse.
3. Fold Together: Gently fold in the whipped cream with the cream cheese mixture until all components of the dish have been mixed and are light and fluffy. Over mixing is not recommended, as it makes the mousse dense.
4. Chill and Serve: The mousse can be divided among serving cups and chilled for 30 minutes before serving – pushes the mousse back into the cups more for presentation purposes. The garnish is very elegant and fresh berries or cocoa powder for decoration may be used.
Tips for Perfecting the Keto Mousse Kernels
- Sweetener: Use only recommended amounts of sweeteners given with the recipe – if the sweetness of the dessert is not desirable for you. Start small and increase the amounts of sweetener if you like, while still retaining the flavor of the other ingredients.
- Flavor Varieties: To make varied flavors one may add a scoop of lemon extract, splash the mix with almond essence or even a tease of cinnamon.
- Chill Time: The chilling of the mousse enhances the flavor and sets the right texture therefore do not skip this stage.
Serving Suggestions
Spoon this mousse into small dessert cups and place a teaspoon of relaxed whipped cream or some shavings of dark chocolate (minimum 85% cocoa) strands for those who wish to indulge a bit more. Serve with several berries to add some color, natural sweetness and also keep the carb value low.
