Ingredients
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 2 tbsp unsweetened cream cheese (softened)
- 1 tbsp powdered erythritol or monk fruit sweetener (adjust to taste)
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- Optional: A few drops of stevia (if you want extra sweetness)
- Optional toppings: Unsweetened cocoa powder, cinnamon, chopped nuts, or sugar-free chocolate chips
Instructions
1. Whisk Together:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, softened cream cheese, sweetener, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
2. Blend:
- Use a hand mixer or whisk vigorously for 1-2 minutes until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy. If you want it thicker, you can whip for another minute. You should have a light, fluffy, and creamy texture.
3. Taste and Adjust:
- Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness by adding more sweetener or a few drops of stevia, if desired.
4. Serve:
- Spoon the creamy mixture into small bowls or glasses.
- Optional: Top with a sprinkle of cocoa powder, cinnamon, or a few chopped nuts for added flavor and texture. You can also add a couple of sugar-free chocolate chips or fresh berries if you’d like.
Tips:
- Flavor variations: Add a few drops of almond extract or a tiny bit of orange zest to change the flavor profile.
- Chill for extra richness: If you prefer it a little firmer, refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving.
- Toppings: Get creative with your toppings! Chopped nuts like pecans or walnuts add crunch, while cocoa powder gives it that rich, chocolatey taste. You can also go for a drizzle of sugar-free caramel syrup or some fresh berries.
This dessert is low-carb, creamy, and delicious in just five minutes! It’s the perfect go-to for when you need a quick, satisfying treat without the sugar crash.
