Low Carb 3-Ingredient Chocolate Ganache Mousse

If you’re looking for Keto Labor Day recipes or recipes for another holiday that calls for shareable dishes, keep this dessert recipe in your back pocket! Only three ingredients are needed: 100% dark chocolate, heavy whipping cream, and a little powdered erythritol. Choose real dark chocolate, not bitter or bitter-sweet, which still includes added sugar. The great thing is there are easy ways to make dessert sweeter on the Keto diet. Add liquid stevia to your arsenal for a zero-carb way to add as much sweetness as you want to your mousse. Keep your finished mousse cold in your refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can enjoy the recipe as your own special treat or you can bring larger batches to family gatherings and other events.

Another Way To Make The Ganache

Another way to make the chocolate ganache in Step 1 is to chop and add all the chocolate to a heat-safe bowl. Heat the heavy cream in a small pot until the cream starts bubbling. Just before the cream reaches simmering, remove it from the stove and pour it over the bowl of chopped chocolate. Cover the bowl immediately with a piece of aluminum foil and leave it undisturbed for 5 minutes. Then, stir the warm ingredients together until they combine in the ganache.

How To Make A Thicker Mousse

If you want your mousse to appear more air-whipped and thicker, there are a couple of things you can do. Add a small amount of gelatin to your mousse in Step 3 before you spoon or pipe it into serving containers. When the mousse chills, it will have more wiggle and jiggle to it. Another way to make a denser mousse is to include an unsweetened pudding mix that also doesn’t include non-Keto sugar substitutes.
