Light, Fluffy & Delicious little parfaits topped with chocolate chips or grated chocolate. |
8 ounces cream cheese, softened at room temperature
1/4 cup + 1/2 tablespoon (1 1/2 teaspoons) natural peanut butter (sugar free)
2/3 cup Lakanto Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1/3 cup (1 1/2 ounces) sugar free chocolate chips (optional)**
3 -4 tablespoons grated sugar free chocolate bar (optional)
Method:
Place a medium mixing bowl in the freezer to chill.
Add the cream cheese, peanut butter, sweetener and vanilla to a separate mixing bowl. Beat until thoroughly blended, smooth and creamy. Set aside.
Add the cream to the chilled bowl and whip at high speed until soft peaks form (& hold their shape).
Combine the whipped cream and peanut butter mixture, on low speed, until all of the ingredients are well blended. Divide the mousse into 6 parfait cups. Refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight. If desired, garnish with chocolate chips or grated chocolate. Makes 6 servings.

Nutritional info per serving, (with Lily's chocolate chips) approximately:

Notes: This Mousse is so delicious, light and fluffy! It also is quite rich, so I was very satisfied with just half of one serving. Which cut the net carbs in half, too. My husband said it was "excellent".
Good heavens! This is a "lick the beater" recipe. I can't wait to see how good it is after it sets up!!!
