If you don’t have a low carb powdered sweetener (also called confectioner’s sugar) on hand, you can make your own! Simply pulse low carb granulated sweetener in a blender (I use a NutriBullet) for about 15 seconds until light and fluffy. I included this as the first step in the Low Carb Cheesecake Mousse recipe below. If you’re using powdered sweetener, you can skip this step.
I found these cute patriotic-themed cupcake toppers on Amazon – they help make this treat even more festive!
