Ingredients
  • 8 oz Cream Cheese
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream
  • 1/4 cup Erythritol or Monk Fruit Sweetener
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 cup Fresh or Frozen Raspberries
  • 1 tsp Lemon Juice

Prepare the Raspberry Puree

In a small saucepan, combine the raspberries and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes, or until the raspberries have softened and released their juices. Mash the raspberries with a fork to create a puree. Let cool slightly.

Whip the Cream Cheese

In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.

Add Sweetener and Vanilla

Add the erythritol or monk fruit sweetener and vanilla extract to the cream cheese. Mix until well combined.

Whip the Heavy Cream

In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.

Combine and Fold

Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Be careful not to overmix.

Swirl in Raspberry Puree

Gently swirl the cooled raspberry puree into the mousse. Do not fully mix it in, as you want to maintain the raspberry swirls.

Chill and Serve

Spoon the mousse into individual serving dishes or glasses. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh raspberries if desired.
