  • Cook Time 10 minutes
  • Yield 5 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup mascarpone cheese (at room temperature)
  • 1 1/2 cups besti powdered monk fruit allulose blend (to taste)
  • 2 medium lemons (juiced and zested; ~1/4 cup juice and 2 tbsp zest)
  • 1/8 tsp sea salt
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream


Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, beat the mascarpone and powdered Besti with a hand mixer for about 1 minute, until smooth and fluffy. Make sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  2. Mix in the lemon juice, lemon zest, and sea salt, and beat again until completely smooth.
  3. In another large bowl, whip the heavy cream with a hand mixer until soft peaks form, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Gently fold the whipped cream into the lemon mixture until everything is just combined.
  5. Spoon the lemon mousse into small serving cups and, if desired, top with additional whipped cream and a slice of lemon for garnish.

Notes

Make sure the mascarpone cheese is at room temperature for easier mixing.
For a stronger lemon flavor, add more lemon zest according to your taste.
Chill the mousse for an hour before serving for even better flavor.
