If you’re craving a sweet treat without compromising your ketogenic lifestyle, Creamy Keto Jello Whips is the perfect dessert! This light and fluffy creation blends sugar-free Jello with rich whipped cream, delivering a refreshing, flavorful indulgence. With minimal prep time and just a few ingredients, this recipe is a game-changer for satisfying your sweet tooth while staying low-carb.

Ingredients:

1 package (0.3 oz) sugar-free Jello.

1 cup ice water.

¾ cup boiling water.

1 cup heavy whipping cream.

1 tablespoon powdered sweetener (e.g., Swerve Confectioners).

Directions:

Prepare the Jello:
Dissolve the Jello powder in ¾ cup of boiling water, stirring until completely dissolved.

Cool the Mixture:
Add 1 cup of ice water (measured as ice plus water) to the dissolved Jello. Stir until the ice cubes mostly melt and the mixture starts to cool and soft set. Remove any remaining ice cubes.

Whip the Cream:
In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to whip the heavy cream and powdered sweetener until stiff peaks form.

Combine:
Gradually add the soft-set Jello to the whipped cream, mixing until fully combined and smooth.

Chill:
Divide the mixture into four custard cups or pour it into a medium-sized serving bowl. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours until fully set.

Serving Tips:

Individual Servings:
Serve the Jello Whips in small custard cups or ramekins for portion control and an elegant presentation.

Garnish Creatively:

Top with fresh berries like raspberries or blackberries (low-carb and keto-friendly).

Sprinkle sugar-free chocolate shavings or a dusting of cocoa powder.

Add a dollop of unsweetened whipped cream for extra indulgence.

Layer for Visual Appeal:
For a trifle-style dessert, alternate layers of Jello Whips with keto granola or a layer of sugar-free gelatin for texture contrast.

Temperature Matters:
Serve chilled straight from the refrigerator for the best texture and flavor.

Storage Tips:

Refrigeration:
Store the dessert in the refrigerator in an airtight container or covered with plastic wrap to prevent it from absorbing fridge odors.

Shelf Life:
Consume within 3 days for optimal freshness and texture.

Freezing (Optional):
Although freezing isn’t ideal as it can affect the texture, you can freeze the Jello Whips for up to 1 month in an airtight, freezer-safe container. To serve, thaw in the fridge overnight.

Avoid Warm Environments:
Jello Whips can melt or lose their structure if left out for too long. Keep them refrigerated until just before serving.

Can I use different sweeteners in this recipe?

If the Jello sets too much, microwave it for a few seconds to loosen it, then let it cool slightly before folding it into the whipped cream. Be careful not to overheat it!

Yes, you can substitute the heavy whipping cream with a keto-friendly dairy-free alternative like coconut cream or almond-based whipped topping. Keep in mind that the flavor and texture may vary slightly.
