Ingredients
Scale
Base
- 4 oz cream cheese (softened)
- 1/4 cup stevia based sweetener (such as Truvia)
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree (at room temperature)
- 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
Whipping Cream
- 1 cup Shamrock Farms whipping cream (cold)
Instructions
- Combine Cream Cheese and Sweetener: Start by adding the softened cream cheese and stevia-based sweetener into a stand mixer bowl or medium bowl. Whisk the mixture on medium-high speed for about two minutes until smooth and creamy.
- Add Pumpkin and Spice: Add in the pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice to the mixer. Mix everything together for another minute to ensure the ingredients are well combined and the spices are evenly distributed.
- Whip the Cream: Pour in the cold heavy whipping cream and whip the mixture on medium speed for 2 minutes. Then increase the speed to high and continue whipping for an additional 3 minutes until the mousse has thickened and reached a fluffy, airy consistency.
- Chill the Mousse: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the mousse for 2 to 4 hours to allow it to set properly and develop a fuller flavor.
- Serve: When ready to serve, transfer the mousse into a piping bag fitted with a 1M Wilton piping tip. Pipe the mousse into small glass cups or dessert dishes for an elegant presentation. Enjoy your keto pumpkin mousse chilled!
Notes
- Ensure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature to avoid lumps in the mousse.
- Use cold heavy whipping cream for the best whipping results and a light, airy texture.
- You can adjust the sweetness depending on your preference by adding more or less stevia-based sweetener.
- For a dairy-free version, consider substituting dairy ingredients with keto-friendly alternatives like coconut cream, but note this may alter texture and flavor.
- Chilling time can be extended to enhance firmness if needed.
