Ingredients: 3 ounces cream cheese, softened; 0.5 cup heavy cream; 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; 0.25 cup powdered zero-calorie sweetener (such as Swerve®); 2 tablespoons cocoa powder; 1 pinch salt

When a sugar craving strikes, this keto chocolate mousse is the perfect solution. It’s incredibly fast to prepare, ready in a flash! Forget pre-whipping the heavy cream—simply combine everything in a bowl and mix. Feel free to use any keto-friendly granular sweetener that measures like sugar; I recommend the powdered version of Swerve for its superior dissolving properties. Adjust the cocoa powder and sweetener levels to your personal taste preferences. This mousse is quite decadent, so a small portion is often all you need to feel fully satisfied.

Ingredients

3 ounces cream cheese, softened
0.5 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
0.25 cup powdered zero-calorie sweetener (such as Swerve®)
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 pinch salt

Instructions

In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the cream cheese until it reaches a light and fluffy consistency.
Reduce the mixer speed to low, then gradually incorporate the heavy cream and vanilla extract. Mix in the sweetener, cocoa powder, and salt until everything is thoroughly combined. Increase the mixer speed to high and continue mixing until the mousse is light and airy, for an additional 1 to 2 minutes.
Serve immediately, or chill in the refrigerator to enjoy later.
