    Keto Chocolate Cheesecake Mousse with a hint of peppermint. A perfectly easy low carb dessert recipes to celebrate the holidays!

    Close up shot of keto chocolate peppermint cheesecake mousse.

    Okay darlings, I am throwing one more keto holiday recipe y0ur way before I call it quits for the season.

    This low carb cheesecake mousse recipe is so easy to make, it’s perfect for a last minute addition to your menu. And it’s one I wanted to share because I created it as one of my recipes for my new collaboration with Diet Doctor.

    I am really excited to be working with them. I’ve known of them for a long time, and had the utmost respect for the work they are doing and the information they are putting out there. In fact, when someone requests detailed information on how to start and maintain a keto diet, I often refer them to the Diet Doctor website.

    Turns out that respect was mutual because they recently asked me to create a few recipes a month for them. They also did a full length interview and feature on their site of yours truly.

    Thus far, I’ve created four recipes for them, and really loved them all. But I am particularly fond of this keto mousse recipe and given that Christmas is two days away, I thought I’d share about it and send you over to their site to check it out.

    It was remarkably tasty and ridiculously easy. Honestly, I was surprised by how much I liked it. I knew it would be good but I found I couldn’t stop licking the spoon when I was mixing it up and dishing it out.

    Really not very sanitary of me, but it was only going to be me and my husband eating it so I figured no harm, no foul.

    If you’re not a peppermint fan, feel free to flavor it with whatever else you like. But if you like cheesecake and you like chocolate mousse, you are going to adore this Chocolate Cheesecake Mousse!

      Super delicious! Love the rich chocolate flavor, and yet, the dessert has a wonderful lightness to it! Not too cream-cheesey. Perfect chocolate-ness! Yum!

      Made it for myself, not guests or an event (is that bad?). I used Lakanto monk fruit sweeteners instead of Swerve and loved it!

      Imagine my delight when, hankering for a “smooth” dessert a week out of jaw surgery, I come to my favorite website to find this yummy dessert! I’ll be doing a review on Diet Doctor page but let me say here that it is AMAZING!! Dinner was loaded cauliflower soup with puréed bacon (which is possible if you make it crispy enough! Thank you so much Carolyn for all that you do! Merry Christmas to you and your family.
