Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup heavy cream Use high-quality heavy cream for best results.
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder Choose a rich cocoa powder for depth of flavor.
  • 1/4 cup erythritol or your favorite keto-friendly sweetener Adjust based on your preferred sweetness level.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Adds depth to the mousse’s flavor.
  • pinch none sea salt Enhances the chocolate flavor.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Chill a mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for about 10 minutes to achieve a fluffier mousse.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the unsweetened cocoa powder, erythritol, and sea salt.
  3. In your chilled bowl, pour in the heavy cream and vanilla extract. Using an electric mixer, whip the cream until soft peaks form.
  4. Gradually fold in the cocoa mixture into the whipped cream, being gentle to keep the mixture light and airy.
  5. Once fully combined, transfer the mousse into serving dishes and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  6. Garnish with whipped cream, berries, or nuts before serving for added flavor and texture.

Notes

Keto Chocolate Mousse can be kept in the refrigerator for up to three days in an airtight container. Avoid overmixing when folding in the cocoa mixture to maintain a light texture.
