Revision for recipe gone bad [View all]

Last edited Sun Jun 2, 2024, 12:16 PM - Edit history (1)


I made some keto chocolate mousse. Easy ingredients cream cheese softened, cocoa, heavy whipping cream and a sweetener of your choice.

I made it a couple of times and it turned out beautifully. Fluffy and creamy. I didn’t allow the cream cheese to get room temp and when all ingredients were mixed together I allowed it to be more marbled, in other words the chocolate wasn’t fully incorporated.

A couple of weeks ago I made another batch and this time allowed the cream cheese to go to room temp. Added to stand mixer, whipped it up, added the heavy whipping cream, and chocolate, with a small amount of granulated sugar. Not sure what went wrong but it never whipped up and is extremely liquidity in its current state.

Do you think I could use it in a pound cake recipe?


I wanted to try it out the other day but chickened out because of being afraid it would be a flop and ingredients can be expensive.

I’ve been making this pound cake

* 1 1/2 C Butter 3 sticks
* 2 1/2 C Sugar (I only use 2 C)
* 5 eggs
* 1 14 C Buttermilk (I make mine with vinegar and milk)
3 C Flour
3/4 C Cocoa Powder (I use Hershey Special Dark)
1 t Baking Powder
1 t Vanilla
Salt

Preheat Oven to 350🔥

Cream butter, sugar, eggs (1 at a time), vanilla
Add shifted dry ingredients alternating with the milk.

Add to greased and floured pan. Bake for about an hour.

* indicates room temperature for ingredients

I’ve also been added spices as well 🤭

TIA
