Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a medium bowl, combine 4 oz softened cream cheese, 3 tbsp powdered erythritol, and 1 tsp vanilla extract. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes.
  2. Step 2: In a separate chilled bowl, whip 1 cup heavy cream using a hand mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Step 3: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture with a spatula until well combined and smooth.
  4. Step 4: Stir in 1 cup fresh raspberries and 1 tsp lemon zest carefully to retain the raspberry shape.
  5. Step 5: Spoon the mousse into serving glasses and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow it to set and chill.
