If you like strawberries as much as we do, and want something light, fluffy, and still keto-friendly then this recipe is exactly what you’ll want to make. Like this keto strawberry cheesecake, this low carb strawberry dessert tastes amazing!
This strawberry keto mousse uses only fresh strawberries, cool whip, and a bit of gelatin powder. Of course, vanilla is used too, because it makes this recipe so much better.
This recipe is super easy to make, just like our berry cheesecake parfait recipe, and you just have to puree the strawberries and mix everything together. Plus, there is no sweetener used in this recipe as the strawberries are sweet on their own. However, if you enjoy your desserts sweeter, you can use a low carb sweetener of your choice.
Tips to make the strawberry mousse:
- Use cool whip for this recipe. If you do not have any cool whip, use a mix equal amounts of cream cheese and heavy cream, with some gelatin powder to stabilize the mixture.
- For this recipe, we used fresh strawberries, but you can also use frozen strawberries. Just make sure to thaw them before use or, if you do not want to thaw the strawberries, use a high power blender to blend frozen strawberries.
- If you want more flavor you can add sugar-free strawberry Jell-O to this recipe.
