Pumpkin Mousse – Low Carb

This recipe for pumpkin mousse is a favorite in our house. I seriously love anything pumpkin – anything. Cookies, pumpkin spiced coffee & tea, pumpkin pie… the list goes on. We even have pumpkin for breakfast – we like to put unsweetened warmed pumpkin in a bowl with a dollop of plain greek yogurt on top, sprinkled with walnuts and cinnamon for breakfast. But why stop there? You might recall I just made some Delicious Pumpkin Cookies last week too. Yum!

What about a low carb pumpkin mousse?

 

This recipe for Pumpkin Mousse really needs little explanation. It’s a combination of all the good flavors of the season – pumpkin, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice… oh yes, and some heavenly cottage cheese and sugar-free butterscotch pudding.

Even better…

To kick it up a notch, top with a little (I mean LITTLE – this is supposed to be a healthy dessert) whipped cream and gingersnap cookie crumbles.
