Ingredients

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 package sugar-free gelatin (any flavor)
  • 1/2 cup boiling water

Instructions

  1. Prepare Gelatin:

    • In a small bowl, dissolve the sugar-free gelatin in 1/2 cup of boiling water. Stir well until completely dissolved. Set aside to cool slightly.
  2. Prepare Cream Cheese Mixture:

    • In a separate mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
  3. Incorporate Gelatin:

    • Gradually add the cooled gelatin mixture to the cream cheese, stirring continuously until well combined.
  4. Add Heavy Cream:

    • In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until evenly incorporated.
  5. Chill:

    • Pour the mixture into individual serving dishes or glasses. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or until set.
  6. Serve:

    • Once chilled and set, serve the Low Carb Cheesecake Mousse chilled. Optionally, garnish with fresh berries or a sprinkle of cocoa powder before serving.

Tips for Variation:

  • Flavor Options: Experiment with different flavors of sugar-free gelatin. Cranberry, raspberry, or lemon are great choices to add variety to this dessert.

  • Texture Adjustments: For a lighter mousse, you can adjust the amount of heavy cream used. More cream will result in a lighter texture, while less will make it denser.

  • Sweetness Level: Depending on personal preference, you can adjust the sweetness by using different flavors of sugar-free gelatin or adding a small amount of low-carb sweetener to the cream cheese mixture.

Enjoy this guilt-free dessert that’s rich in flavor and perfect for satisfying your cravings while sticking to your low-carb lifestyle!
