(I get a wee something from every sale that goes through me, too, so, thank you soo much! You are the sweetest!)
Cheesecake Mousse - Ah'Yum!
Cheesecake Mousse - Yum!
Light and Fluffy, and you can make it for the Paleo Diet, too!
2 - 8oz packages of Cream Cheese (You can use 1 package of Cream Cheese, if you like : )
Whipping Cream (I use the larger container), or One package of Dream Whip (the Low-Fat version!)
Mini-marshmallows (1 small bag or about 3/4 of a large bag of mini-marshmallows)
2 Tbsp. Lemon Juice
2 Tsp. Vanilla
Top with Fresh Berries, or Pie Filling, or have it just as it is - is delicious, light and smooth, any way you like it! Yum!

This is a really easy recipe – takes about 20 minutes to make.
I pour the Cheesecake Mousse into a giant Baggie, cut off the corner, use that to pipe the Cheesecake Mousse into Wine Glasses and Shot Glasses - so cute! Very pretty!
Of course, you know I like to make a LOT of anything I ever make, so I go with the larger version of everything - the large container of Whipping Cream - there's a small one, like the size of a small carton of milk you might've gotten at school, then the next size up is usually the largest you can get - so it looks like a half carton... you'll see it in the dairy section : )
I loove this Birthday Flower Cake - this really breaks me up - so cute, right??
So, let's say you're on the Paleo Diet, or you love someone who is on the Paleo Diet, and you want to make a lovely wee treat for them that they can eat, and stay on their Paleo Diet, right? And, in case you're wondering, the Paleo Diet says it's okay to eat Fat, but allows only a small number of Carbs, per day... so, if you are making this delicious Cheesecake Mousse for the Paleo Diet, you can go ahead and whip the Whipping Cream, then beat the cream cheese so it's creamy, and add in the lemon juice and the vanilla.
Mix the cream cheese with the whip cream - gently, first, then you can whip this mixture, too, so it's lovely and smooth - like in the picture! lol! Go ahead and put that in a wine glass, maybe a different one from the others, so you'll know for sure which one is the Paleo Cheesecake Mousse : )
Add a little Stevia to sweeten the Cheesecake Mousse, if you like : )
This is one of my favorite parts of making this delicious, light and fluffy Cheesecake Mousse... you pour the mini-marshmallows into a large microwave-safe bowl, and pop it in the microwave for about 2 minutes - you'll be watching it, and when the marshmallows fluff right up, usually at the 1:35 minute mark, but you're a'gonna keep an eye on it, right, so you can take the mini-marshmallows out of the microwave (you can use normal size marshmallows, too - I just like the mini-marshmallows better - more fun - lol!)...
So you take the mini-marshmallows out the microwave, and stir right away, then pour into the cream cheese mixture. If you are making this lovely Cheesecake Mousse as one batch, and you're making it the regular way, I always pour the mini-marshmallows, melted and stirred, straight into the cream cheese mixture, and THEN add the Whip Cream, gently. I just fold in the Whipped Cream. Yum!
Can you see the mini-marshmallows? Soo cool! That's the stirred mini-marshmallows on the Right.
This is My Original Cherry Cheesecake Recipe - I'm just making this delicious Cheesecake recipe as a Cheesecake Mousse, today, since we all want to have a nice little light dessert, tonight, so we're skipping the Graham Crumb Crust, but that's crazy-delicious, too! : )
See all the lovely wine glasses and wee dishes for the Cheesecake Mousse?? lol! The Wine Glass in the middle is much bigger than it looks in this pic - lol! But I put the Paleo Diet Cheesecake Mousse in a different wine glass, so we can tell them apart... and then I thought, well, what else do I have to put the Cheesecake Mousse in, and limited space in the fridge, so I used the little blue dishes, and a couple of little Lucky 4 leaf clover Shot Glasses - lol!
I think it would be a lot of fun to make this Cheesecake Mousse and put it ALL in Shot Glasses - the perfect amount for a party, right?? Or a little treat, just for you (and people you love! lol!) : )
Happy Eating!! Ailsa : )

The Paleo Diet Version of the Cheesecake Mousse - so good!!
So here's how it all breaks down - if you are on the Paleo Diet, you will want to keep your carbs right down there, so just use the Cream Cheese (1 g of Carbs), Lemon Juice (0 g of Carbs), Vanilla, and the Whipping Cream ( 1 g of Carbs). You can easily add some nice fresh fruit, too - blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, cherries.. whatever fruit you like, or have it just as it is - is all good, for sure!
Low Fat Version of this Delicious Cheesecake Mousse - yahoo! Yummy AND Low Fat! lol!
When you are making this delicious Cheesecake Mousse the regular way, it's still a very healthy little treat, and if you want to lower the Fat grams, use the Low Fat Cream Cheese, Use the Dream Whip (.5 g of Fat), and you can make the Dream Whip with any milk you like... and the marshmallows are Fat-Free - yahoo!
How great is THAT?? Yum, and sooo great! lol!
Shot, shot, shot, shot-shot! haha! Deeelish!!
Cherry Cheesecake, my original recipe - sooo crazy-good!
