Ok so I was looking to make some sort of cheesecake-like dessert and basically took a few recipes and mixed them together. The outcome was GREAT, but then again this is my first low carb dessert.
Ok this makes approx. 4 servings at about 5.5 carbs each slice, including whipped topping.

-SLOWLY add in, the gelating/splenda mix into the cream cheese mixture. Stir until fully creamy and smooth.
