Raspberry Ricotta-Coconut Mousse

3.36 net carbs per serving.

Layers of raspberry sauce surround a light and creamy ricotta-coconut mousse in this dessert.

By keeping a can of coconut cream or coconut milk in the refrigerator, I'm always ready to make a dessert like this and the raspberry sauce is equally delicious using either fresh or frozen raspberries.

The raspberry sauce is great served over pancakes or waffles too.
