Ingredients

Caramel Sauce

  • ½ cup butter
  • ⅓ cup Allumonk sweetener Swerve or Monkfruit/Erythritol blend can be substituted
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Cheesecake Mousse

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tbsp Allumonk sweetener Powdered Swerve or Powdered Monkfruit/Erythritol blend can be substituted
  • 8 ounces cream cheese at room temperature
  • ½ cup prepared Caramel Sauce reserve remaining sauce for topping

Instructions

  • Melt butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Do not use too small of a pan as this recipe will expand while cooking
  • Add ⅓ cup Allumonk sweetener.
  • Stir and cook over low heat until the mixture blends and starts to turn a light brown. This will take about 5 - 7 minutes. Do not rush it. It can burn quickly if you heat it too fast or at too high of a temperature.
  • Add 1 cup of heavy whipping cream and the salt and stir. This will bubble up at the beginning.
  • Continue cooking over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens and turns to a caramel color. This step will take about 10 - 12 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and stir in vanilla.
  • Pour into a glass container. Refrigerate until it cools.
  • Whip the remaining 1 cup of heavy whipping cream with the 2 tablespoons of sweetener until it forms stiff peaks.
  • In a larger, separate bowl, beat the cream cheese until it is smooth and resembles whipped cream.
  • Add the ½ cup of Caramel Sauce to the cream cheese. Mix well.
  • Add the whipped cream to the cream cheese/caramel mixture and mix well.
  • Chill for about 30 minutes.
  • Serve with the remaining Caramel Sauce drizzled over the Caramel Cheesecake Mousse.

Notes

You can substitute Swerve or Lankanto Monkfruit sweeteners if you prefer. I do not recommend other sweeteners in this recipe.
This is incredible rich. I often find that just a tablespoon or two is enough to satisfy rather than a full serving.
