Add the cream cheese and powdered sweetener to a large bowl. Blend on low to mix and then increase the speed to medium. Mix until smooth. Add the salt, lemon juice, zest and vanilla to the creamed mixture. Mix well.

Add the heavy cream to the chilled bowl. Beat on high until stiff peaks form. (about 2 minutes.)  Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until all is well combined. Refrigerate to set and chill for 30 minutes or overnight.
