My next door neighbour Vijaya is a Manglorean and makes delicious Neer Dosais and Appams.Her Sweet Appams are truly delicious and crisply light and can be eaten as a Dessert or an Evening Snack.By fermenting the Batter one need not add any Yeast or Baking Powder/Soda as these come out extremely light and fluffy by themselves.These are made in a special Cast Iron Pan called the Appa Chatti which is these days available in the Market in a healthy Non-Stick format too.These can be eaten by themselves or dipped in Rasaayan or sweet Spiced Coconut Milk.They taste great either way but I prefer these by themselves!!!
These traditional Laadoos(Balls) are made from polished Sesame Seeds and sticky Jaggery specifically for the Makar Sankranti Festival or Winter Harvest Festival which is celebrated to give thanks to The Almighty for His Bounty.This Festival takes place on either 14th. or 15th. of January each year and all the products of the Winter Harvest are ceremoniously worshipped in Clay Pots made specially for this day.These Clay Pots are daubed with stripes of Sandalwood ,Turmeric and Kum Kum Pastes,worshipped and then ceremoniously distributed to married women in different numbers---5/7/9/11--according to custom in each home..This Speciality is eaten and made all over India in the Winter---as that is when certain Foods are eaten to keep the body warm----Sesame Seeds too are considered a "Hot" food-----and combined with Jaggery,roasted Split Chick Peas,Peanuts,Dry Fruits,Coconut and aromatic Spices these add a festive air to these days!!!
Yoghurt based Shrikhand is one of the favourite traditional Sweets in India----specially in the States of Maharashtra and Gujerat.This is easily converted into into Fruit or Mango Shrikhand also called Aamra Khand in Marathi.

Made with Pineapple, Mandarin Oranges and Cool Whip. The Rumor is that it is only 1 WW point, but when calculating up all the Ingredients it is in reality 3 points. But still worth it. You can mix it up by using different flavors of yogurt or pudding mix.
These are from the Pioneer Woman cooking blog. I've not yet made them, but I've modified her recipe with substitutions and cutting down on the crumb mixture in the attempt to make it not quite as sinful. I'll come back and rate my own recipe once I make it.
This recipe primarily comes from page 32 of the Philadelphia Cream Cheese "Cheesecake" book, dated 1989, Library of Congress Catalog # 88-64120. We use lower fat vanilla wafers (rather than the graham crackers and margarine used in the original recipe) for the bottom 'crust.' Replaced full fat cream cheese with fat-free version.
Moist and delicious, this recipe uses only two ingredients. For a lighter flavor, use white or yellow cake mix. For a bolder taste, try chocolate!
Another one I got from Splenda's site. They have a lot of really great recipes. Again, I tweaked this one to lower the sugar a little bit more.

I decided to take a classic sugar cookie recipe made with olive oil and use whole wheat flour, splenda, and some spices. Everyone in my family loved them!

This is my mom & grandmas recipe for chocolate syrup. Not quite sure why they called it "dope", unless it has to do with the addictive factor. It was made for all occasions involving cake and ice cream when I was a child. Every bit as good, if not better, than Hershey's syrup. When I crunched the numbers, it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be. Portion size is the key. Wonderful over vanilla frozen yogurt.
