If you're looking for an impressive dessert for Valentine's Day or an at-home dinner party, this keto-friendly chocolate mousse has a light and fluffy texture and only requires five ingredients. High in fat and low in carbs, this decadent mousse let's you indulge while still hitting your keto macros.
In a large bowl, add the cream cheese, 1/2 cup of the heavy cream, and vanilla extract. Use an electric hand mixer to beat until the mixture is soft and smooth, about 1 minute.
Turn the mixer off and add the erythritol, cocoa powder, and salt. Starting on low speed, continue to mix and then increase to medium/high speed until ingredients are combined and form a thick chocolate batter. Set aside.
Add the rest of the heavy cream to a separate medium bowl and use the electric hand mixture to beat until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate batter using a spatula until consistent and fluffy.
Spoon the chocolate mousse into separate glass containers and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. Top with berries and mint (optional).
