- 1/3 cup powdered sweetener adjust to taste
- 3 tbsp peanut butter smooth
- 1 cup heavy cream cold

Instructions
- Gather all the ingredients. Ensure that your mascarpone cheese or cream cheese and heavy cream are cold for the best results.

- Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture using a spatula, starting with one-third of the whipped cream and then adding the rest.
