-
Prep time: 5 minutes
-
Servings: 4
-
Difficulty: Easy
Ingredients
-
8 oz Cream Cheese (softened to room temperature)
-
1/2 cup Heavy Whipping Cream (cold)
-
1/4 cup Powdered Erythritol or Monk Fruit sweetener
-
1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
-
1/4 cup Fresh Raspberries or Strawberries (optional, for folding in)
-
1 pinch Sea salt (to balance the sweetness)
Instructions
-
Cream the Base: In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sweetener together using a hand mixer until smooth and pale.
-
Add Flavor: Mix in the vanilla extract and the pinch of salt.
-
Whip it Up: Slowly pour in the heavy whipping cream while continuing to beat on high speed. Continue whipping for 2–3 minutes until the mixture forms stiff peaks and becomes light and “fluffy.”
-
Fold (Optional): Gently fold in your berries or a few sugar-free chocolate chips if desired.
-
Serve or Chill: You can eat it immediately, but it sets into a lovely fudge-like consistency if chilled in the fridge for 30 minutes.
Notes & Pro-Tips
-
Temperature Matters: Ensure your cream cheese is truly at room temperature to avoid “lumpy” fluff. However, make sure your heavy cream is ice-cold to help it aerate and stiffen properly.
-
The Sweetener: Use a powdered sweetener. Granulated sweeteners won’t dissolve properly in a cold dessert and will leave the fluff feeling gritty.
-
Flavor Variations: * Chocolate: Add 2 tbsp of unsweetened cocoa powder.
-
Lemon: Add 1 tbsp lemon juice and 1 tsp lemon zest.
-
Coffee: Add 1 tsp of instant espresso powder.

Q&A
Q: Can I freeze this?
A: Yes! If you freeze it for about 2 hours, it takes on an ice-cream-like texture. If you freeze it longer, let it thaw on the counter for 10 minutes before eating.
Q: How long does it stay fresh?
A: You can store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. It may lose a little volume over time, but a quick whisk will bring it back to life.
Q: Can I make this dairy-free?
A: You can substitute the cream cheese for a vegan almond-based cream cheese and use chilled coconut cream (the thick part at the top of the can) instead of heavy whipping cream.
