I’ve been following a low carb lifestyle for a month and a half now and can report a six pound weight loss! I’m happy to be committed to living a healthier lifestyle and watching my sugar intake. It was hard to kick the sugar habit, but I have created a recipe that I can enjoy when I’m craving something sweet to eat! I love chocolate, peanut butter, and cheesecake, so this is the perfect combination to enjoy together if you are watching your carbs! If you are looking for a light and fluffy dessert with the perfect amount of sweetness, this is for you!

8 oz. package of whipped cream cheese
3/4 cup of Swerve sweetener
3/4 cup whipped peanut butter

4. In a medium mixing bowl, mix filling ingredients (cream cheese, sweetener, peanut butter) with an electric mixer until blended. Add the whipping cream and whip until mixture is creamy and fluffy and a peak forms.
5. Stir in chocolate chips.
6. Spread mixture onto cooled crust evenly.
7. Refrigerate for a few hours before serving.
8. Sprinkle with leftover chocolate chips and drizzle the chocolate sauce on top before serving!
