Decadent Keto Chocolate Mousse (with Video)
This Keto Chocolate Mousse is unbelievably rich and decadent — and it fits right in to a keto diet or low carb lifestyle!
Keto Chocolate Mousse
When I was pregnant, I used to treat myself to a little something sweet every night after the kids went to bed. But when you’re trying to lose all that baby weight, things have to change a bit!
A while back, a friend at church introduced me to keto. With the keto diet, she’d lost all her baby weight in just a few months! (Super impressive because it was her sixth kiddo!)
My gorgeous friend told me all about how she at bacon, cheese, bulletproof coffee, and even desserts and never felt hungry.
Eat dessert and still lose weight? Tell me more!!
I did a little research and saw that keto was a lot like the Atkins and South Beach Diet (both of which I’d done successfully in my college years).
Since I was pregnant at the time, I put keto on the back burner. Though my husband and I started experimenting with recipes, like these ahh-mazing Keto No Bake Cookies and Buffalo Keto Cauliflower Tots.
When our baby turned six months old, I felt like it was safe to try the keto thing – and it definitely works! Though I was still craving the chocolate ice cream and frozen treats I ate while pregnant.
My sweet husband (the chef in the family) put on his thinking cap and created a keto-friendly chocolate mousse that is better than I could have ever imagined.
This stuff is heavenly!!
You guys, keto is a breeze when you make food like this!
I mean, just take a look at how rich and creamy this keto chocolate mousse is!

While you heat up your coconut milk, you can use that time to prep the rest of the keto mousse ingredients. Chopping the chocolate into chunks helps it melt faster.
We blend everything up before we add the hot coconut milk. Once you add the milk, it will cook the eggs, so they’ll be safe to eat.
Pour into your parfait cups and sprinkle with the little bit of chopped chocolate bar you had set aside. Chill in the fridge to set (about 2 hours).
However, if you have time to make this keto mousse the day before you plan to eat it, it tastes even better the next day!

Please help me here – I doubled this recipe for July 4th to share with my family. It never really set, and was more like the consistency of thin pudding. We still ate it with whipped cream and berries on top, but I had it in the freezer for a total of about 3 hours, and an about 1 hour in the fridge. Maybe I’ll try again and try overnight.
