Quick Keto Chocolate Mousse

I was fiercely CRAVING chocolate that fit the keto and was satisfying...I tried other things and was disappointed. I tried this and it was EVERYTHING! It was quick and easy. The hardest part was waiting for the cream cheese to soften. I used xylitol as the sweetener and it was great. I took the first bite and felt a rush of satisfaction as relief. It was soooooo good! It was so good in fact, that even though the serving size indicates 1/2 recipe, 1/4 was fulfilling. Therefore, 4 servings instead of 2...YAY! now I can enjoy it 4 times instead of two...or share with 3 other people and be confident that it’s fulfilling. Thank you so much for this recipe...I can now move on with my day and not be a monster.

This was fantastic! Followed the recipe exactly except added a bit more cocoa powder and some melted dark bitter chocolate for a more chocolate flavor. I doubled the recipe and divided into 6 servings (our family size) and also made an easy bottom “cookie” crust (combine & press on bottom of dishes: 3Tbs melted butter, 1c almond flour, 2tsp cocoa powder & 2tsp granulated sweetener—all Keto). My whole family loved it! So easy and delicious.

Choose a sweetener without etherol, it crystalizes and has a gritty texture when it hits the air, over night. I use Splenda or stevia; liquid sweetener is best or just add a little water at a time to liquify. 4 stars for this oversite

This was SO GOOD. Followed the directions and it was easy! Change: I wanted a double batch (for two days worth for two people) and I used 8 ox of cream cheese (a typical package) and one quart of heavy cream (two portions of what it called for, so that was easy too!)

This is absolutely delicious. I have made two double batches in the past two weeks. I divide the servings into glass desert dishes, sprinkle a few sugar free chocolate chips on top and cover it with press & seal. This stores just fine for 4 days without a change in consistency. I omitted the vanilla extract and added a tablespoon of espresso instant crystals while mixing to make a mocha flavor...yum. You could experiment with any extract to change it up a bit. Delicious addition to my low carb lifestyle. Thank you for sharing!

Wow. This is so easy and crazy good! Made it exactly as written. This is going to be a go-to for sure. I can see many little adjustments you can make to change the flavor a bit. (Not that it needs it) I might just survive this Keto diet after all. lol

I added some coffee extract for a mocha version.

I was a little skeptical of this, because I really haven't had many keto desserts that I like! This recipe was easier than other keto mousse recipes I've found. It is SO good! It tastes like a mix between chocolate buttercream frosting and chocolate creme pie. This is going to be an easy dessert for me to whip up and take with me when I'll be tempted by holiday desserts at parties!

A nice sweet treat, very easy to make! Tastes great. I recommend using the Hersey's Special Dark coco powder.

It was so easy to make- excellent

This is the second time I have made this. Incredible! I used the Monk Fruit sweetener and ran it through the bullet to powder it. Very smooth and delicious!

Absolutely delicious! I added a tablespoon of peanut butter.

Made exactly as written and will definitely be making again.

Sometimes you just have to have chocolate! This is really good and compared to some of the other recipes for Keto mousse, this was easy to make.

Wonderful! So light and chocolatey.

Thanks! Finally found a keeper keto dessert! I doubled the recipe but not the sweetener. My husband doesn't like sweets much just a taste of chocolate.

It is pretty good, I did use Swerve and reduced the amount by 1/2. Also added an 1/8 t of cinnamon. Really gave it depth. Thx for sharing it

I skipped the salt, but kept everything else the same. It's delicious, and takes less than five minutes to make!

This is good, reminds me a lot of frosting.

Y’all. I made it for Valentine’s Day. My twin and I ate it all. I made it again the next day. Added spices. Less chocolate. The original recipe has such a STRONG flavor and I didn’t want that until I didn’t haven’t like that. Stick with the original. It’s PERFECT. Quick and easy!!! When I get sugar cravings I’m ready to tear the house apart. Thanks so much for this!!!!!

I used confectioners Swerve. It wasn’t sweet enough for me so I added more. It’s not as tasty as the real sugar mousse but I can live with it!

Amazing!! Not the best photo lol. I will say I had issues with mixing the cream cheese because I don't have an electric mixer but I ended up using my blender. I added an extra tablespoon of coco powder and blended that with my monk fruit then added it to the mousse. Best keto dessert ever!!!

My husband said it was too sweet and chocolately. I’ll make it again reducing both.

I made this and added a splash of Torani sugar free hazelnut syrup.....OMG it is so good. Almost ate it all before I could get it to the refrigerator.

This mousse is excellent. My only concern is that the preamble to the recipe was a bit misleading, where it says "just throw everything into a bowl and mix", I took that part seriously, lol. After I did that, I read the instructions. My own fault as I'm not experienced at making desserts with cream cheese.

Made recipe as instructed, excellent!!!

I made no changes, only doubled it and I'm glad I did. Delicious.

I followed the recipe exactly. It was wonderful.

I love this mouse! It has just enough to satisfy. I served with fresh cut strawberries. Thank you.😊

I used powdered allulose as my sweetener (no cooling effect, or aftertaste). 2 tbsp of cocoa powdered made it quite rich, so next time I’ll add a little less chocolate, but it came out amazing!

Amazing just as directed.

WOW, that is all I can say. I'm fairly new to Keto, and was only one month in, and really starting to crave sweets, and this was all I needed. It was hard to believe it was lo carb, but it is now going to be my go to dessert. I make a double batch and it keeps well for several days in the fridge. I rarely leave reviews, but had to with this one. Thank you so much for this recipe.

This is by far the Best Keto dessert I have made!! I did half vanilla flavor and half almond flavor. Certianly will be my go to dessert.

This is a great and easy recipe! I tried freezing it like ice cream but it didn’t work well at all. Stick with it as is and it’s delicious!!

This is by far the best Chocolate Mousse I have ever had. Not just keto. Ever! I used the recipe here. I added just about a teaspoon extra of cocoa. I also put my stevia and truvia sweetener in my ninja for about 20 to 25 seconds. (I didn’t have enough stevia so I used both) This powdered it up tremendously so the mousse was not gritty at all. I also used 2 tablespoons of avocado that I mashed up and blended with the cream cheese. It made it a thicker mousse and you can’t taste it at all. It was amazeballs! I could not tell this was keto at all! If you’re reading this and you already made it and didn’t have success. Try again and you’ll love it! *I don’t use stevia other than for dishes like this on occasion

Thanks for the base recipe! I used xylitol granular sweetener but put it through the bullet to make it powdered and I only used 1/8th of a cup which was plenty for me. It definitely hits the chocolate and sweet craving. It's true you don't need much, its filling. Delicious, thanks again!

I made this tonight for the first time and it was very easy to prep ! I used xylitol, combined it with cream and stirred it with a fork to dissolve it a little before adding to cream cheese and worked out well. I will add a little more sugar next time but this will be my go to recipe for chocolate cravings. I had enough to fill 6 ramekins.

This was amazing..

Awesome keto dessert. Made it for a date and he loves it too.

So easy to make and SO GOOD! I used dutched cocoa powder and added an extra tablespoon to make it extra chocolate-y!

So yummy !

I was craving a Reese's Peanut Butter cup so I put a dollop of natural peanut butter on the side and yum

Easy, fun, and super yummy keto dessert!

I've been looking for an easy dessert for low carb diet and this is it! I just wish I had read the reviews for so I could have a cookie bottom too! LOL

It was SUPER delicious and very satisfying. Its a keeper and very easy to make.

Love this!!!

1st time, as is, it tasted a little too cream cheesy for me. 2nd time I ran out of cream cheese, ended up using only 2-2.5 oz, and the cream cheese taste was barely noticeable. Lovely with chopped macadamia and/or pistachios on top!

I have made this every week since I made it the first time a month ago. On a keto diet and this completely satisfies my sweet tooth and chocolate craving! Great and EASY recipe.

I recently got into a low-carb diet and I have been constantly craving something sweet since it was my time of the month. I doubled the recipe and added semi-sweet chocolate chips and some peanuts and it tasted like smooth snickers. Not exactly how I would like to eat snickers but I'll take it. Definitely recommend this recipe!

Just do it!!!’ It’s amazing and simple and ohhh sooo delish!! I’m gonna triple the recipe for a dinner party Friday. I know it will be a hit cus all my friends are counting carbs since i went keto!

seriously bad aftertaste

Excellent even with fat free cream cheese and half and half. I added a tsp of butter to make up for the lack of fat.

This was delicious!!! Made the recipe as is and used powdered bochasweet as my sweetener. So creamy and delicious. Non keto hubby and mom loved it!

Oh my gosh, yes, this is good, and very rich. Like another reviewer noted, half of a serving is plenty. I added just a tiny "squirt" of raspberry puree right before eating. Fabulous!

Great recipe! We increased the cream cheese to 8oz and the whipping cream to a whole cup. 3tbsp of dark cocoa powder but only increased the swerve by 1 tbsp. It was not too sweet and was very creamy. We happen to love dark chocolate so this was perfect for us. We will do this one again.

easy and awesome - what more could you ask for?

Oh this is Great!!!!

I used less sweetener, very yummy

It was so good!

An excellent recipe. I have made this on 2 occasions and it was brilliant both times. I used erythritol and didn't have the issue some have complained of when using it. didn't crystallize in the refrigerator. i think its because of how long i whipped it for. I added a teaspoon of instant coffee to the vanilla before adding it to the whipped cream. I used one tablespoon hersheys special dark cocoa powder and one tablespoon hersheys 100% cocoa powder. I'll use a little less sweetner next time though. a tad sweet. I got 4 servings on each occasion I made this recipe. Keto or not I'll be making this recipe one of my regulars. Thanks for the amazing recipe.

It was perfect! I was wanting a quick, low carb treat and I had all the ingredients. The only issue I had was that I only have a big stand mixer. (Maybe if I had doubled the recipe, the big mixer would work ok?) I need to get a hand mixer for some of these smaller recipes. I will definitely be making this again, trying the mocha variation some others have mentioned.

I can’t say anything more positive than 5 stars. I added half coconut extract and half vanilla extract, then garnished with a pinch of coconut.

Needed something sweet and easy. Had everything on hand. This did the trick!

I think this will be an epic fail - mix until light and fluffy - mine did not do either. It's light and soupy..... I'm hoping the texture will thicken in the fridge?! It doesn't look even close to the video.

Easy and delicious!

Excellent. Got 3 quite adequate servings out of this, taking it to 4.6 carbs per serving. Quick and easy recipe to put together.

OMG, I used black cocoa in this recipe, it is to die for! Chocolate craving, completely satisfied

I loved this recipe! I used the Swerve powdered sugar sweetener and dark chocolate cocoa and it was amazing! No aftertaste, very rich, and helps that chocolate craving with less guilt!

Pretty good, super simple! This was almost TOO rich, if possible. I'm planning on making some unsweetened, whipped cream to cut it with. It's really thick, as the author said, so I think the extra whipped cream mixed with it would be perfect. I used Swerve for the first time with this. Taste was just fine. Recommended.

I followed the recipe. This was the easiest, richest and all round best chocolate mousse I ever made.

very delish!

Will make again. These measurements made well more than 2 servings for me

Yes it will be one of my favorite desserts on keto!

Hubby and I just started the keto diet, today is first full day. I am playing with recipes to find what we like and don’t like. This recipe fits the bill, I will make again. We used straight monk fruit powder about 1/8 tsp and 4 drops of liquid monk fruit. Topped with fresh strawberries, hubby enjoyed thoroughly! Thank you!

I'll add less confectioners sugar next time (I used swerve) but it's delicious!

Loved it!! Followed directions step by step and it was delish!! Even my 18 yr old liked it

Perfect without adjustments, and VERY filling!

My husband said it was too sweet and chocolately. I’ll make it again reducing both.

This was thick and rich and yummy, I'll make this again

i thought it was good, just not the best. needs a little more sweetness

I made this before I was vegan and it was yummy!! Any person that is experiencing the Keto Diet, I highly recommend it!

I love the versatility of this tecipe!! I always have a sweet tooth and this was awesome! I made exactly as recipe called for, double batch, and I loved it! I was concerned because I didnt have a mixer, but a whisk worked fine for me, thank you for sharing :)

I made this as an alternative to another version that doesn't use the cream cheese, but everything else. I found this recipe to be slightly heavier/greasier (not in a bad way), but also not quite as "harsh" of a taste on the tongue as the counterpart I have been making for several weeks now. It helps to satisfy the sweet tooth cravings, but I think the cream cheese flavor is a little too strong - it tastes more like a chocolate cream cheese frosting than a mousse.

I have made this every week since I made it the first time a month ago. On a keto diet and this completely satisfies my sweet tooth and chocolate craving! Great and EASY recipe.

It was absolutely amazing. My husband kept asking if I was sure this is keto!

OMG so good

So easy and so good! And it's CHOCOLATE! LOL

Wow! What a lifesaver. I am new to Keto and was having a craving for something sweet. This totally hit the spot. I’m so happy.

Rich and delicious

I made this with Ghiradelli 100% cocoa Dutch process and vanilla bean paste. I didn’t add any sweetener at all. It was really delicious.

This was excellent- I used monk fruit ( powdered sugar) and divided this recipe into 4 small helpings, and topped it with whipped cream. Perfect.

I substituted sour cream for the cream cheese, and I wasn't disappointed! It was delicious without the extra calories. Thank you so much!!

really good, really easy, added #reddiwip with raspberries. I looked at nutrition after I ate it. Yes, low carb but a little too high in fat. will make again though!

The chocolate mousse was delicious, exactly as written. I used another reviewer’s recommendation and layered this wonderful mousse on a “cookie crust” of butter, swerve, cocoa and dash of cinnamon. Thank you for sharing your mousse recipe with us! Perfect!

Horrible aftertaste, bitter and tastes of fake sweetener. I made it exactly as written. Too bad Splenda has been found to kill off gut bacteria because it would probably help this recipe a lot. Husband didn't mind it too much.

Excellent flavor, sugar sub has a after taste. Good product.

Btw one serving is about 60g

This was delicious and kit that craving for something sweet! I used Swerve (NOT Splenda) and there was no aftertaste. I could swim in a bowl of this for days on end!!

Wow!! This recipe was delicious and easy!! It tastes like chocolate cheesecake. I doubled the amounts of all ingredients and cut the sweetener in half. I did what another reader said and used Monk Fruit Sweetener. Must pulverize the sweetener in a coffee grinder. I was just amazed how good this dessert was!! Can’t believe it’s only 6g carbs!
