Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes
Servings 6 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz (225 g) full-fat cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup (240 ml) heavy whipping cream, cold
  • 1/3–1/2 cup powdered erythritol or allulose (adjust to taste; powdered blends mix best)
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp lemon zest (optional, but brightens flavor)
  • Pinch of fine sea salt
  • 1–1 1/2 cups mixed berries (raspberries, strawberries, blackberries, blueberries)
  • 1–2 tsp lemon juice (for berries)
  • 1–2 tbsp powdered sweetener (optional, for berries if they’re tart)
  • 1 tsp chia seeds (optional, to lightly thicken a berry topping)

Instructions
 

  • Prep the berries. Rinse and pat dry. Slice strawberries if using. Toss berries with lemon juice and a little sweetener if needed. If you like a thicker sauce, sprinkle in chia seeds and let sit while you make the filling.
  • Whip the cream. In a chilled bowl, beat the cold heavy cream to soft peaks. Don’t overbeat. Set aside.
  • Beat the cream cheese. In a separate bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth and fluffy, 1–2 minutes. Add powdered sweetener, vanilla, lemon zest, and a pinch of salt. Beat until creamy with no lumps.
  • Fold together. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture in two batches. Use a spatula and light strokes to keep it airy. Taste and adjust sweetness.
  • Assemble. Spoon the cream cheese mousse into small jars or a serving dish. Top with the berry mixture. For a layered look, alternate mousse and berries.
  • Chill. Refrigerate for at least 30–60 minutes to set and meld flavors. It firms up slightly and tastes even better cold.
  • Serve. Garnish with a few whole berries or a light dusting of sweetener. Enjoy straight from the fridge.
