Instructions
Regular Graham Cracker Crust
Mix together the melted butter, graham crackers crumbs and sugar together and press in an 8x8 pan. Reserve 2 tablespoons for top of whipped cream for garnish if you wish. Place in fridge.
Keto Graham Cracker Crust
In a medium bowl, combine the ingredients for the crust until the flour is coated in butter and it resembles a rough sand texture.
Press the crust into the bottom of your pan.
Use the bottom of a measuring cup to press the crust into an even layer.
Bake crust at 350 F for 8 minutes and let cool. Place in fridge until you start adding the layers.
Fluffy Lemon Burst Mousse or Keto/Sugar-Free Version
Start out whipping the cream cheese until smooth. Add the whipping cream, powdered sugar and whip on medium-high speed to get fluffy and creamy. The mixture should start forming soft peaks. Add lemon juice and pinch of salt and continue whipping to get a fluffy mousse texture. Do not whip at high speed, to get best texture without overwhipping the texture.
Strawberry filling or Keto/Sugar-Free Version / Can also use canned Strawberry Filling
In small saucepan, combine 2 cups strawberries, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice over medium-low heat.
Stir frequently until strawberries release their juices.
Increase heat to medium-high and bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
Boil (still stirring constantly) for 1 minutes and remove from heat, place in new heat proof container to cool faster and place in fridge while you prepare your Keto Lemon Mousse.
Whipped cream or Keto Whipped Cream (or use 8 oz. Cool Whip)
Whipped cream (1 cup whipping cream + ¼ cup powdered sugar or sugar-free powdered sugar, like Lakanto.
Whip together the whipping cream and powdered sugar and whip on medium-high to get stiff peaks. Place in pastry bag with large tip or spoon whipped topping around the border of the dessert.
