Lemon Mousse Squares (Diabetic)

LDSMom128's Note:

I found this in a Diabetic cookbook and were so good! They were like a light cheesecake, but even better!! The only change from the listed ingredients and what I used was they had Sugar Free Lemon Yogurt listed and I couldn't find that anywhere, but I did find Dannon Light and Fit Carb and Sugar Control Vanilla Cream Yogurt. I used that it may have made them even better!! Also you can substitute Splenda for the Sugar. I tried to write the recipe that way, but it wouldn't let me. I'm not going to include the chilling times, just the time it takes for you to actually be doing something!
