Prepare a rich, no-bake dessert that tastes like chocolate cheesecake but fits a ketogenic diet.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 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

Instructions

  1. Place the softened cream cheese and powdered keto sweetener in a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
  2. Add the melted butter, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and salt to the cream cheese mixture. Mix until fully combined and smooth.
  3. In a separate, chilled bowl, whip the cold heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form.
  4. Gently fold one-third of the whipped cream into the chocolate cream cheese mixture to lighten it.
  5. Fold in the remaining whipped cream until no white streaks remain. Do not overmix.
  6. Spoon the mousse into individual serving dishes or ramekins.
  7. 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.
