Keto Peanut Butter Mousse
Description
This mousse starts by mixing mascarpone or cream cheese with powdered sweetener, smooth peanut butter, and vanilla extract. If unsalted peanut butter is used, a pinch of salt balances the flavor. Separately whipped cold heavy cream is gently folded into the mixture to maintain airiness. The final mousse is silky and creamy with a peanut butter richness complemented by creamy cheese texture. It is often served in portions topped with crumbled low carb biscuits or a peanut butter drizzle. The recipe yields six portions, each with approximately 3g net carbs, ideal for ketogenic diets.
Store in the refrigerator for up to six days or freeze for longer storage, making this mousse convenient for advance preparation.
Ingredients
- 1 cup mascarpone or cream cheese, cold (240g)
- ¼ cup powdered sweetener 40g (use ⅓ cup / 60g for a sweeter mousse)
- 3 tbsp / 55g peanut butter smooth
- 1 cup heavy cream cold (240g)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- pinch salt if your peanut butter is unsalted, sea salt
Instructions

- In a clean bowl, whip the cream until just below stiff peaks.
- Fold the whipped cream through the peanut butter mix until combined and smooth. Pipe or spoon into a glass and top with optional crumbled low carb biscuit of choice and a drizzle of peanut butter.
Notes
- Each portion contains about 3g net carbs, catering to low-carb diets.
- Toppings like crumbled keto biscuits and peanut butter drizzle add texture and flavor.
- Store mousse in the refrigerator up to six days or freeze up to three months.
- Use thick, high-quality cream cheese such as Philadelphia when substituting mascarpone.
