Semifreddo means half frozen in Italian, it's a frozen mousse that is light and luscious. It's a perfect dessert when you want something cold and creamy but you don't want to lug out the ice cream maker.

Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1 serving Salted Caramel Keto Chow (or 1 scoop)
- 1/2 cup powdered erythritol (Swerve)
- 6 large room temperature egg whites
- 1/2 cup keto candied almonds or sliced toasted almonds
Instructions
- Prepare an ice cream mold or loaf pan by lining with plastic wrap or waxed paper.
- With an electric mixer, beat the cream until it starts to thicken. When it begins to look like melted ice cream, slowly add the Keto Chow and sweetener.
- Continue to whip the cream until it holds stiff peaks.
- Fold in the candied almonds.
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until they are stiff but not dry. Be sure the bowl and beaters are very clean and there isn’t even a drop of egg yolk in the whites or the whites will not whip successfully. You can wipe the bowl and the beaters down with white vinegar to ensure they are clean.
- Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the Keto Chow mixture.
- Spoon the mixture into the prepared ice cream mold or loaf pan and wrap tightly with plastic wrap.
- Freeze overnight.
- Unmold the loaf onto a serving dish and slice to serve.
- Garnish with reserved almonds, fresh berries, and whipped cream, if desired.

I made this a few weeks ago and just yesterday I let it thaw until I could easily portioned it out into 8 5.5oz souffle cups with lids for single grab & go servings. Perfect! It is beyond delicious. Next batch will be Salted Caramel meets Chocolate.
