Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients

1 cup heavy cream
8 oz cream cheese (softened to room temperature)
1 cup powdered monk fruit sweetener
¼ cup fresh lemon juice (2-3 lemons)
2 tsp vanilla extract

Method

In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form (about 2-3 minutes). Set aside.
In a separate mixing bowl, whip the cream cheese until light and fluffy. Add the powdered monk fruit sweetener, lemon juice, and vanilla extract and whip until combined. This will take 2-3 minutes.
Fold in the whipped heavy cream.
Transfer the lemon mousse to individual containers, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Serve with lemon wedges if desired!

Notes

– Ensure your cream cheese is at true room temperature to avoid lumps when whipping; this makes for a smoother mousse.
– For an extra burst of flavor and visual appeal, grate some fresh lemon zest directly into the mousse mixture along with the juice.
– This mousse can be stored in individual covered containers in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. It can also be frozen for up to 1 month; thaw slightly before serving for the best texture.
