πŸ“ Ingredients

Keto Mousse Ingredients

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 3 tbsp powdered keto sweetener (monk fruit or erythritol blend)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of sea salt

Why These Ingredients Work

  • Heavy cream whips into a soft, fluffy texture that forms the base of the mousse.
  • Powdered sweetener blends smoothly without graininess.
  • Vanilla adds warmth and a classic dessert aroma.
  • Salt enhances sweetness and balances flavors.

πŸ“Œ Ingredient Notes

  • Heavy Whipping Cream: Ensure it’s cold β€” cold cream whips faster and gives a better mousse texture.
  • Sweetener: Powdered sweeteners are best; granular sweeteners won’t dissolve completely and may leave a gritty texture.
  • Flavor Variations:
    • Add cocoa powder for chocolate mousse.
    • Add lemon zest for a refreshing citrus mousse.
    • Add a spoonful of peanut butter for a rich, nutty twist.

πŸ‘©β€πŸ³ Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare Your Mixing Bowl

Start by placing your mixing bowl in the fridge for 5 minutes. Using a cold bowl helps the cream whip faster and gives a more stable mousse.

2. Add Heavy Cream

Pour the heavy whipping cream into the chilled bowl. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, begin whipping on medium speed until the cream thickens slightly.

3. Add Sweetener & Vanilla

Once the cream starts forming soft peaks, add powdered keto sweetener, vanilla extract, and a small pinch of sea salt. These ingredients melt beautifully into the cream, creating a smooth, luscious texture.

4. Whip to Fluffy Perfection

Increase your mixer speed to medium-high and whip until stiff peaks form. The mousse should be fluffy, velvety, and hold its shape perfectly without being over-whipped. You’re looking for a cloud-like consistency that feels airy but rich.
