- 2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
- 1 teaspoon orange extract (or zest of one orange for a natural flavor)
- 1/4 cup powdered erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- A few drops of natural orange food coloring (optional)
- Fresh orange zest for garnish
Instructions: - Whip the cream: In a large mixing bowl, use an electric hand mixer to whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Set it aside.
- Prepare the cream cheese mixture: In another bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, orange extract (or zest), vanilla extract, and powdered sweetener. Beat the mixture until it's smooth and creamy.
- Combine the mixtures: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream. Mix until everything is well combined.
- Adjust sweetness and color: Taste the mousse, and if you desire a stronger orange flavor, you can add a bit more extract or zest. If you want a more vibrant color, add a few drops of natural orange food coloring.
- Chill the mousse: Spoon the mousse into individual serving cups and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and the mousse to set.
- Garnish and serve: Before serving, garnish with a sprinkle of fresh orange zest and, if desired, a dollop of whipped cream or a slice of orange. Enjoy your delicious, low-carb dessert!
