Weight Watchers Peppermint Mousse Shooters

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream (use fat-free or light whipped topping to reduce points)
  • 1/2 tsp peppermint extract
  • 1/4 cup Swerve confectioners
  • 3 oz reduced-fat cream cheese, softened
  • Peppermint candies, crushed (use sugar-free peppermint candies to reduce points)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Filling:
    • In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and Swerve until smooth and creamy. Ensure there is no grittiness.
    • Add the peppermint extract and light whipped topping. Whisk the mixture until it thickens and takes on the consistency of mousse.
  2. Assemble the Shooters:
    • Pipe the mixture into eight shot glasses.
    • Sprinkle crushed sugar-free peppermint candies on top.
  3. Optional Decoration:
    • For a festive touch, use food coloring to turn half of the mousse red. Layer the red and white mousse in the shot glasses to create a candy cane appearance.

Notes:

  • This no-bake dish is easy to prepare ahead of time. The mousse can be stored in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Pipe into shot glasses just before serving.

Weight Watchers Points:

  • Using fat-free or light whipped topping and reduced-fat cream cheese significantly lowers the points. This recipe is approximately 1-2 points per shooter on the Weight Watchers Blue Plan, but please double-check with your specific plan and app to confirm.
