KETO COFFEE MOCHA MOUSSE INGREDIENTS:
This section is where I share a few suggestions and explanations for the ingredients you’ll need for this recipe.
(You can find the exact amounts needed on the recipe card embedded below this section).
Why erythritol?
In my opinion, erythritol is the best keto-friendly sweetener.
– it doesn’t spike your blood sugar,
– it’s completely safe and
– has a very fresh & natural sweet taste.
Because of its natural origin and natural production process (fermentation), I also consider erythritol to be paleo-friendly.
You can use other keto-friendly sweeteners that won’t spike your blood sugar as well, but be aware that you may have to add more or less sweetener if you do so.
Erythritol is about 70% as sweet as sugar whereas other keto-friendly sweeteners like monk fruit and stevia are much sweeter than sugar.
Keep that ratio in mind when using a 1:1 sugar replacement.
You can also use a vanilla bean in exchange.
1 tsp = 1/2 bean
HOW TO MAKE THE KETO COFFEE MOCHA MOUSSE:
Add all of the ingredients for the mousse into a bigger bowl and beat with a hand mixer or whisk until you get a smooth and fluffy mass.
Add the chocolate and instant coffee to a small bowl and pour a little bit of boiling water over it.
Stir until you get a smooth mass.
☝︎ You may want to chop the chocolate into smaller pieces before pouring the water over it - this way it will dissolve more easily.
Pour the chocolate-coffee-mixture into the bowl with the mascarpone and beat again briefly until everything is mixed.
Fill the mousse into a small jar and let it chill in your fridge for at least 30 minutes before enjoying it.
Cover the jar with plastic wrap or a lid and store it in your fridge.
The mousse will be good for at least 3-4 days.

Q: How do you include Erythritol in your calculations?
A: The short answer is: I don’t, and I can tell you why.
Erythritol is a sugar alcohol which your body can’t digest.
If you ingest it, it won’t spike your blood sugar & it won’t release insulin (which is a good thing if you want to stay in ketosis).
It passes through our system basically “untouched”.
Because of this, you can subtract the carbs from erythritol completely, which is what I always do.
(I try to be as accurate as possible with this information, but values may vary because of natural occurring fluctuations and different products used.)
