What is your favorite low-calorie dessert? And I don't mean a 10cal fruit popsicle. I am a serious choco-holic needing to find alternatives to brownies.
I suggest Skinny Cow / Unreal chocolate candies. They're delicious and satisfy the craving!0 -

It drives me crazy when people get all defensive when someone declares that they wish to not eat a completely unhealthy type of junk food. Why is that so bizarre, and hard to understand? For many, and most likely the ones who ask..stopping at one brownie, one serving of chips, etc is just not an option, or they prefer to eat something a bit more nutritious. As far as your question goes, http://healthy-recipe-group.fitsugar.com/Single-Serve-Black-Bean-Brownies-16128450 I promise you can't taste the beans lol. I also almost never use coconut flour because I dont have it..so I will add a tbs of whole wheat flour, or garbanzo bean flour. Making something a single serving also helps, and this is really filling.
I also like to food process any type of fruit, with any healthy addins for an "ice cream" type dessert. Lately I've been doing frozen peaches with some pumpkin, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla protein powder, coconut milk, vanilla extract, and topping with a bit of pumpkin seeds and golden raisins.
Chips, brownies or ice cream will not kill you, nor does it alone cause weight gain so get off the high horse and realize that it comes down to will power and the ability to not stuff your face. You can get fat on your so called clean foods to0 -
This will sound weird but Diet Pop cake/ cupcakes.
I actually made them this morning. Take any box of cake mix the kind you normally add egg and oil to and instead of egg and oil mix it with a can of diet pop. Bake following the directions on the box. I made large cupcakes, got 15 out of the box so only 106 calories each. I used diet sprite with french vanilla cake mix. I've heard Colas work well with chocolates and diet root beer is supposed to work well with spiced cakes. You can really experiment with the different flavours. I don't find the pop taste really comes through just tastes like cake and its really moist.0 -

Arctic Zero ice-cream replacement. It's only 148 calories for a pint. You can get it at Whole Food Market. Some supermarkets have it also. The chocolate flavor and the coffee flavor are the best. :flowerforyou:0

Ohhh I love arctic Zero! Great suggestion. The mint chocolate is my fave0

Great.

I've done these before and love them! I forgot about it.
And I'm surprised at how many people are getting all edgy about me saying I want to find a brownie alternative. I'm basically just trying to find a chocolatey treat I can eat more often than brownies. Thanks for the sass though.
A genuine thanks to those who actually answered my question!0 -
I would recommend having a reallllly good browse at the supermarket and also buying some sandwich bags I found some mini rice cakes that have chocolate/yoghurt on one side and they're about 70ish - 90ish cals a serve. There are 4 servings to a bag so I put them in the sandwich bags and I can grab one out for either one of my snacks or after dinner if I'm feeling snacky. I also eat them a lot slower that I would have previously to make them last longer
Some of the protein bars are ok too - definitely check the calories though I found a mini one that is kind of like fudge that is 100 calories but the rest were sometimes 4 times as much. I also have cups of tea and that sort of helps with my cravings of needing something sweet after dinner (even though I don't add sugar to mine)
An apple baked in the microwave with some cinnamon is yummy too
I know none of these are brownie-ish but still, they're desserty!0 -
http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/chocolate-covered-recipes/snackity-snacks/ this has a whole lot of brownie and everything else chocolate and then some. :happy:0

I love weight watchers chocolate creme cake at 90 calories0

I think some people forget that not everyone has reached there goal yet... For someone who is just starting out maybe they don't want the extra fat and calories. Maybe they can't stop at just one. Maybe they are actually trying to change their eating habits and cutting out sweets is part of that. You don't know everyone's story so before you go cutting them down for not wanting to eat a brownie, why can't you just be supportive of their decision and offer a suggestion, or move on.. You don't have to comment. We're supposed to be helping each other along this journey.. Not judging someone because they don't want to cheat on their diet.
Personally I love the "soda cake" thing. I use my cake mix and turn it into a sort of cobbler. I use the spice cake and add mixed fruit and then the sprite! But chocolate cake and blueberries sounds like it would be really good! Maybe I'll try that next time!0
