How to Make It
Step 1
To a small pan over medium-low heat, add the butter. Once it melts, add the almond flour and toast it for 2-3 minutes until golden. Mix in ½ tbsp of cocoa powder and 1 tbsp of powdered sweetener, then set the crumb aside to cool.
Step 2
To a bowl, add the heavy cream. Using a hand mixer, beat the cream until it reaches stiff peaks. Set aside.
Step 3
Add the cream cheese, 1 1/2 tbsp cocoa powder, 4 tbsp sweetener, and vanilla extract to another bowl. Beat for 1-2 minutes using a hand mixer. Stop when the mixture is smooth and lump-free.
Step 4
Add the whipped cream to the cream cheese bowl. Fold gently using a spatula to incorporate. Don’t whisk or mix vigorously so that you don’t knock out the air.
Step 5
Secure a piping bag in a cup or mug. Fill it with the chocolate mousse and cut off its end. Set aside until assembly.
Step 6
To assemble, take out 2 serving glasses. Add 2 teaspoons of chocolate crumb to the bottom of each glass—pipe 3 tbsp of mousse on top of the crumb.
Step 7
Add another 2 teaspoons of crumb to each glass, and another layer of mousse. Garnish the top with a sprinkle of crumbs. Transfer to the fridge for 30 minutes to set.
