This recipe for a low carb lemon cheesecake mousse is a quick and easy dessert for Spring. It’s a great light dessert for a dinner party too.
The beauty of this lemon mousse is that can be quickly prepared which is a bonus when you need a dessert with minimal preparation. I have played around with this mousse using berries and cocoa, but the lemon version is my favourite.

Armed with a whisk, you can make this mousse in under 15 minutes. This lemon mousse dessert is really just that simple! Chill for at least 30 minutes and voila! A tasty dessert. This is a great option if you have unexpected guests over too. Or need a simple dessert that doesn’t require hours in the kitchen with 15 different ingredients.
Recipe Tips & Suggestions
If you don't have powdered low carb sweetener, you can grind granular sweetener in a coffee blender.
If you were really in a rush and needed a creamy dessert (we’ve all been there, so no judgement) you could simply throw all the ingredients in a bowl and whisk away until everything is blended and smooth.
Try other flavours for these cheesecake mousse. Blended raspberries or strawberries are delicious. Or keep it plain as a vanilla cheesecake mousse with a berry topping.

Just made this for Sunday dessert. So quick, easy and tasty! I added a couple of Tablespoons of sour cream (because I had it on hand) and I think it added a little richness.
My husband is not a fan of chocolate desserts, so he is going to love this! Thank you for the recipe.Reply

I love the addition of the sour cream!

1 lemon is equal to how many ounces or teaspoons or tablespoons please. Want to make this right away. Sounds awesome!!!

We really liked it. Quite filling and very tasty!
I decreased Erythritol by maybe 1/8 c and added 3 drops stevia glycerine to balance the sweet taste a bit. Like suggested in another comment, I cut the cream cheese by about 1oz and added a bit of lemon zest to mixture. Treated ourselves with a crumbled graham cracker on top! Delicious!Reply
Jill
It made at least 4 cups !!

Very light dessert-and I would make again but here is what I would do differently after making it last night for 6 of us: more lemon juice and zest than it calls for, less in bowls-definitely serves more than 4- you can’t eat 1/4 of this-and I would add slightly less cream cheese , it’s a bit too cheesy tasting.

Made this and we love it! I think next time I might add a little unflavored gelatin to set it up better (and be reminiscent of a lemon jello cheesecake my mom used to make). I substituted Monk Fruit for the erythritol and it was just so good. Thank you - will be making this at least once a month!

What is the serving size 1 cup? Thank you
Reply
Angela Coleby
It's about just over 1/2 cup per serving. It fitted 4 medium wine glasses if that helps.
