The Starry Night Delight – A Keto Italian Frozen Treat

Allergens

Dairy (Mascarpone Cheese), Almonds (Almond Milk)

Ingredients

• 2 cups heavy whipping cream
• 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
• 8 oz mascarpone cheese
• 1/2 cup powdered erythritol, or to taste
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup strong brewed espresso, cooled
• 3 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream and almond milk. Use an electric mixer to whisk until soft peaks form. Set aside.
2. In another large bowl, combine mascarpone cheese, erythritol, and vanilla extract. Mix well until smooth.
3. Gently fold the whipped cream mixture into the mascarpone mixture, dividing it into two separate portions.
4. To one portion of the combined mixture, add the cooled espresso and stir until well incorporated. To the other portion, add the cocoa powder and mix until fully combined.
5. Layer the espresso and chocolate mixtures in a glass or bowl, creating a marbled effect. Repeat this process for each serving. Cover and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
6. When ready to serve, garnish with a dusting of cocoa powder and a sprig of fresh mint.

Chef’s Insight

For an extra touch of decadence, drizzle a small amount of sugar-free dark chocolate sauce over each serving.
