Keto Chocolate Mousse Recipe – An easy low carb chocolate dessert pudding that’s Dairy Free and LCHF too!
Keto Chocolate Mousse Recipe
There are so many chocolate mousse variations out there. I love trying new recipes and comparing different methods of making Keto Chocolate Mousse that taste as good, if not better, than sugar loaded alternatives.
This variation comes from the latest Nigella Lawson cookbook, “At My Table“. I was looking through the cookbook to find recipes which I can easily modify to be Keto and the only swap this dairy free chocolate mousse needed was switching the sugar for Stevia. Pretty easy modification!
So I set about making my first batch to see how it tasted. And? This chocolate mousse is the stuff of dreams! It’s rich and chocolatey and perfect whether you’re keto, paleo, dairy free or just want to enjoy a decadent chocolate mousse.
A Quick Word About Ingredients – note that this recipe is made with raw eggs, so don’t feed to children, pregnant women or anyone with a weakened immunity.
The chocolate I used is 90% Dark Lindt (find it here), the higher the % the lower the carbs tends to be. You can adjust the sweetness depending on how dark the chocolate is that you use.
