Ingredients
Chocolate Mousse Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon erythritol sweetener
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, add all of the ingredients together—heavy cream, unsweetened cocoa powder, erythritol sweetener, and vanilla extract.
- 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.
- Serve: Spoon the chocolate mousse into bowls or use a piping bag for a fancier presentation.
- 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.
