Description

A deliciously creamy and easy-to-make Low Carb and Keto Chocolate Mousse that’s perfect for satisfying your chocolate cravings while sticking to a ketogenic lifestyle. This mousse is made with simple ingredients like heavy cream, unsweetened cocoa powder, and erythritol sweetener, offering a rich and smooth dessert with minimal carbs and no added sugars.


Ingredients

Chocolate Mousse Ingredients

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tablespoon erythritol sweetener
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract


Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, add all of the ingredients together—heavy cream, unsweetened cocoa powder, erythritol sweetener, and vanilla extract.
  2. Whip Mixture: Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, whip the mixture for about three minutes until it reaches a light, fluffy whipped cream texture.
  3. Serve: Spoon the chocolate mousse into bowls or use a piping bag for a fancier presentation.
  4. Garnish: Optionally, top the mousse with extra whipped cream and chocolate shreds or chips for added texture and decoration.

Notes

  • Use chilled heavy cream for best whipping results.
  • Erythritol can be substituted with other keto-friendly sweeteners like monk fruit or stevia to taste.
  • For a richer chocolate flavor, sift the cocoa powder before adding to avoid lumps.
  • Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • Whip the cream just until stiff peaks form to ensure a smooth mousse texture without over-whipping.
