What is your typical dessert?

I have to have dessert everyday. I would lose the food battle if I didn't have something sweet after dinner. Usually I have a mini ice cream cone from Trader Joe's for 80 calories or a rice krispie bar. What do you have for dessert? I feel the need to branch out and get some good ideas for sweets so I don't become a one trick pony. What do you have?
If you're capable of resisting sweets, good for you, but I look forward to my ice cream every night.

i like vanilla greek yogurt with just about anything fruit. Also iv done a chocolate protein cupcake with cool whip and marshmellow mixed for frosting. VERY good0
-
Glass of red wine and dark chocolate, or a night cap.0

When I started my Journey I cut out all the bad sweets and foods that I loved and craved for far too long. I now enjoy Sugar Free Jello or Pudding topped with lite whip cream. Its sweet and satisfying!0
-
Ice cream or Oreos. Or cake. Or candy. Maybe an ice cream Oreo cake topped with Reeses.0
-
I'd have a some poptarts or some Ben & Jerry's ice cream to hit my carb and fat macros0
-
Usually Breyer's or Edy's ice cream and/or a Krispy Kreme donut.0

I have to have dessert everyday.
You mean I WANT to have dessert everyday. No problem if it fits in your budget but you don't HAVE to have dessert.0 -
A glass of wine and a pickle, dill or kosher, or Wheaties and 2% milk.:drinker:0
-
I eat full fat yogurt with organic granola every night0
-
Make a bruleed banana and top it with some nutella or pb powder and serve that over ice cream0
-
I eat a relatively late dinner so I try to avoid the sweet craves, but when I just gotta have something I adore these frozen banana slices from Trader Joes. They're called "gone bananas", covered in chocolate, and you can take out just a piece or two at a time so it's low investment macro-wise.0

I don't have dessert too often, but when I do....like strawberry shortcake or some ice cream with hot fudge0

I usually have a serving of one of these most nights:
Trader Joes - Sea Salt & Turbinado Sugar Dark Chocolate Almonds (perfect combination of sweet and salty)
Trader Joes - Dark Chocolate Covered Cherries (not the liquid filled kind, they are dried bing cherries covered in dark chocolate)
Or, if I need more protein at the end of the day:
Low-fat cottage cheese with splenda and cinnamon (tastes similar to rice pudding).0 -
A bowl of raspberries with a bit of cream sprinkled with sugar. omg YUUuUUuUUmmm0
-
Watermelon when it's in season, an organic fruit popsicle, or frozen yogurt if I'm really craving it.0
-
Rainbow sherbet or, if I can get away with it....Dairy Queen vanilla dipped cone.
I also have one small piece (one square) of dark chocolate every night as I turn out the lights in bed, lol. The box / bar is in my bedside table.0 -
2 cups of ice cream...
...............
everyday....0 -
i dont eat dessert.0

I eat ice cream still, or cookies, or cake. When my calories allow. Every night though I have a cup of Greek yogurt with a scoop of protein powder. lately I have been using chocolate flavor pp so it is like pudding. I add fruit sometimes, or even marshmallows or chocolate chips. yum!0
-
Ice cream or a couple squares of dark chocolate. Not everyday, though, usually just a few nights a week.0
-
I don't really do dessert but when I do it's BEER!0
-
Planters Energy Mix Peanut Butter. Right now my favorite is the Berry Nut. 2 tablespoons is only 180 calories and I try to eat it with my daily apple...but sometimes I just eat it by itself. SOOOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOOOOD!0
-
i still eat candy (I love Dove's dark chocolate sea salt caramel promises) 1 square is 40 calories! I also have an awful sweet tooth so I have a piece of cake every now and again (2-3x a month). But mostly dark chocolate satisfies my sweet tooth. I also make killer smoothies with strawberries, bananas, spinach, avacado, 1 tbs of PB, and a splash of fat free milk. It's about 320 calories, loaded with viatmins, and tastes AMAZING!!!!0
-
Greek Yoghurt with some dark chocolate melted in to it with honey and dried/fresh fruit. Started having this most days. I avoid most processed food but feel if I allow myself a bit of dark chocolate every day it cuts the cravings.0
-
Greek yogurt with fruit, dark chocolate, or an ice cream sandwich. Sometimes bourbon counts as dessert.0
-
Make a bruleed banana and top it with some nutella or pb powder and serve that over ice cream
I want this now. :grumble:0 -
i like skinny cow mint icecream sadwiches sometimes- 150 cals
popsicles
strawberries
100 cal cookie packs
canned fruit0 -
I bake a lot of homemade goods, so usually I'll have a portion of whatever I baked that day. Usually cookies or cheesecake. Today I baked oreo stuffed chocolate chip cookies. If I don't bake, I have ice cream or gelato.
If I don't have enough calories saved I'll have a sugar free dark chocolate mousse cup, crumble up a mini heath bar, mix it up and top it with sugar free whipped topping.
I get cranky if I don't have something sweet.0
