Description
Decadent Keto Hazelnut Chocolate Mousse that is rich and satisfying, perfect for a low-carb dessert.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup sugar-free hazelnut spread
- 1/4 cup powdered erythritol (or your favorite keto sweetener)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
- Chopped hazelnuts (for topping)
Instructions
- Pour the heavy cream into a large bowl and whip it vigorously with a hand mixer until it reaches soft peaks, about 2-3 minutes at medium speed.
- In another bowl, blend together the unsweetened cocoa powder, sugar-free hazelnut spread, powdered erythritol, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until smooth and creamy.
- Carefully incorporate the whipped cream into the chocolate hazelnut blend, folding gently to maintain the airy texture.
- Distribute the mousse into individual cups or small bowls, filling them about three-quarters of the way.
- Place the cups in the refrigerator and chill for a minimum of 2 hours to let the mousse firm up.
- Just before serving, sprinkle the tops with chopped hazelnuts for added crunch and flavor.
Notes
- For an enhanced chocolate experience, mix in a tablespoon of espresso powder with the chocolate hazelnut blend before folding in the whipped cream.
- Swap the hazelnut spread for almond butter or peanut butter to explore different nutty flavors.
