📝 Ingredients

Base Mousse

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream

  • ½ cup sugar-free keto chocolate chips (dark or milk chocolate)

  • 2 tbsp powdered erythritol (or preferred keto sweetener)

For the “Double Chocolate” Effect

  • 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder OR 2 tbsp shaved keto chocolate

👩‍🍳 Detailed Instructions

  1. Melt the Chocolate: Place the keto chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat for 20–30 seconds at a time, stirring between intervals until smooth. Set aside to cool for 1–2 minutes (this prevents the heat from melting the whipped cream).

  2. Whip the Cream: In a separate large bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream and powdered sweetener. Using a hand mixer, beat until stiff peaks form (about 2–3 minutes).

  3. Combine: Slowly drizzle the slightly cooled melted chocolate into the whipped cream while mixing on a low speed to maintain the airy volume.

  4. Add the Double Chocolate: Gently fold in your cocoa powder or chocolate shavings to create that deeper, layered chocolate flavor.

  5. Chill: Spoon the mixture into serving glasses or ramekins. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the mousse to set and the flavors to develop.

  6. Garnish and Serve: Top with extra chocolate curls, a dusting of cocoa, or a few fresh raspberries before serving.

💡 Pro-Tips for Success

  • Troubleshooting: If the chocolate seizes (becomes grainy) when melting, stir in 1 teaspoon of warm cream until it smooths out.

  • Texture Control: For a denser, truffle-like mousse, reduce the heavy cream to ¾ cup. For a lighter, fluffier mousse, ensure your cream is very cold before whipping.

  • Storage: Keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3–4 days.
