Note to self: Don’t forget to write the recipe down – especially when you end up loving the photos and can’t wait to post the recipe –the one you never wrote down. Also, it’s not a total loss when you have to make a recipe again because you just might get your husband to try a keto (shhhh, don’t tell) recipe that he likes.
This Pumpkin Keto Mousse was a brain child a few weeks ago when I made it, photographed it and ate it. I thought it was pretty amazing for the short ingredient list and smooth, pumpkin spice flavor. Yes, I’m one of those that Pumpkin Spice all the things.
If you’re looking for a gateway keto dessert, give this a try. It takes mere minutes to mix up and it’s both an inviting texture and a lovely, slightly sweet flavor. Of course, you can adjust the sweetness yourself but I like it not too sweet, not too bland. I thought 3 Tbls of Gentle Sweet was just right.
The next thing I might try is a chocolate keto mousse by my husband’s request. He’s a Chocolate all the things kind of guy. Also, chocolate goes great on this mousse! I used shaved chocolate for the photo but this morning when I made it again, I added mini chocolate chips and it was great.
Also, he suggested this might make a really good pie. Think of this.
Pecan crust, baked separately
Chocolate layer (Lily’s chocolate chips or bar might be great)
Pumpkin Mousse
And, chocolate shaving to top it.
Hmmmm, might give that one a try for Thanksgiving with the fam.
