Ingredients
1 cup heavy cream
¼ cup powdered erythritol (or preferred keto-friendly sweetener)
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp lemon zest
½ tsp vanilla extract
Optional: Additional lemon zest or fresh mint leaves for garnish
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, powdered erythritol, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract.
Using an electric mixer or hand whisk, beat the mixture on medium-high speed until it thickens and forms soft peaks. (Avoid overbeating, as it can turn into butter.)
Spoon the mousse into individual dessert cups or ramekins.
Cover with plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to chill and allow flavors to meld.
Before serving, garnish with a sprinkle of lemon zest or a sprig of fresh mint for a bright, elegant finish.
Notes
Adjust sweetness and tartness to taste by adding more lemon juice or sweetener.
For a dairy-free version, substitute coconut cream for heavy cream.
Serve chilled and enjoy as a refreshing finish to any meal.
Keeps well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
