I am a sucker for decadent chocolate desserts, but most of them pack a calorie punch straight to the midsection. In my book, Choices Coach: Weight Loss Menu Guide, I share my 150-Calorie Mocha Protein Pudding recipe. This is pretty much the same recipe, but I used Dark Chocolate Almond Milk instead of original to make it a little richer and more indulgent.
Delious Sugar Cookie Vintage Beloved Family Recipe - A very big treat for a dieter - you will need to walk about 1.5 miles to burn the extra calories contained in this cookie - I just had to share them they are so special, sorry they are not diet friendly
Guilty Pleasure
This "bread" is dense and delish the recipe renders about 12 slices if baked in a loaf pan.
Half a slice is plenty for a tasty treat which would be about 90 calories
or bake in mini-muffin tin to make 24 which would be 90 calories each.
Freezing indivdual slices makes it easy to stick to one treat at a time

This is an adaptation of a tasty dessert that has been a raging success in the South for the last few years. :) I adapted it to be less sweet and fattening, and the lower sugar content is noticeable. It's about the right level of sweetness for a brunch dish or light dessert. If you want a sweeter taste, it's nice served with frozen vanilla yogurt. However, if you want the original recipe proportions so that the sugar carmelizes on the bottom of the pan (even yummier!), do this: 1) Increase butter to 1 C; 2) Replace fresh apples with canned, sweetened and spiced apples (for pie); 3) Add 1.5 C sugar; 4) Decrease soda to 12 oz. NOTE: This is not a low-calorie or healthy dessert, by any means! I just needed a way to use up some Sprite. Tasty to serve guests, but not kind to your body! You could also halve the serving size and just serve one crescent roll per serving instead of two.
A rather healthy dessert, and an great alternative to pumpkin pie. It is gluten-free and lactose-free. Honey's sugars are released more slowly into the bloodstream than refined sugar, and molasses contains many trace minerals.
This is a wonderful light dessert for any occassion. My family loves it! I don't always use all 5 fruits but I do use a combination of at least 4. Nutrition facts is with all 5 fruits.
no sugar is added and when I can find it I use fat free and sugar free sherbert. (Sorbet may be used instead of sherbert.)
