- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream, cold
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup powdered keto sweetener (erythritol or monk fruit blend)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- Place the softened cream cheese and powdered keto sweetener in a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
- Add the melted butter, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and salt to the cream cheese mixture. Mix until fully combined and smooth.
- In a separate, chilled bowl, whip the cold heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold one-third of the whipped cream into the chocolate cream cheese mixture to lighten it.
- Fold in the remaining whipped cream until no white streaks remain. Do not overmix.
- Spoon the mousse into individual serving dishes or ramekins.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to allow the mousse to set before serving.
Notes
- For a stronger cheesecake tang, add 1/2 teaspoon of fresh lemon juice to the cream cheese mixture.
- If you prefer a firmer mousse, you can add 1/4 teaspoon of xanthan gum when mixing the dry ingredients.
- This dessert keeps well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
