    thank you soo much

    You're welcome! Most of them are gluten free & even vegan. Not a ton of ingredients which is crazy for how impressive they are.

    Love this recipe. You can replace the custard with low fat yoghurt or skip entirely. Amazingly good.

    Also creme caramel made with semi-skimmed milk. Skip the pouring cream for serving in the recipe below.

    i have a cusineart ice cream maker, and last night on a mad sweet hunt, i threw in some plain greek yogurt and pureed fresh strawberries and a small banana.

    it

    was

    wonderful!!!!

    after letting it go through the ice cream maker for about a half hour, then sit in the freezer for about a half hour, it was like a delicious creamy strawberry ice cream. there are so many flavor combos, you could do plain greek, a bit of peanut butter, and a pureed banana and i bet that'd be delicious. totally cured my must-have-sweets madness.

    If you have a Kindle reader, here is a 100 cal dessert cook book that is free right now, not sure if it's just free today or not: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00AXHNJVW/?tag=dded-20

    Also I have a Pinterest board of healthy South Beach friendly dessert recipes here: www.pinterest.com/issypal

    I just ate a Jello Temptations key lime pie pudding. Small cup with a lot of taste and I was surprised it is not sugar free considering it had only 80 calories. Best 80 calories i ever spent.
    Normally I go for the ff sf puddings made with skim milk, and a little light or free cool whip.

    Blueberries with cool whip topping is good also

  • sugar free ice cream like a fudgie or a frozen fruit bar thing, coconut flavor is the best by Edy's.

    Half a cup serving of Jello Instant No fat no sugar pudding. Make it with skim milk. I got the idea from Nutrisystem. They have an instant pudding dessert in their mix. I discovered I could do the same thing with Jello on the open market for way less money.

    Black bean brownies!

    http://allrecipes.com/recipe/black-bean-brownies/detail.aspx?event8=1&prop24=SR_Title&e11=black bean brownies&e8=Quick Search&event10=1&e7=Home Page

    I usually skip the oil part of the recipe and use only 1/2 cup brown sugar. I also normally swirl in natural peanut butter before baking and don't normally add the chocolate chips.

    Or, Peanut butter swirl brownies

    http://sallysbakingaddiction.com/2012/06/10/skinny-peanut-butter-swirl-brownies/

    I have made this before as well, delicious and more of a fudge texture. I cut the sugar and added unsweetened applesauce but I can't remember the ratio right now. I also used 0% fat greek yogurt instead of the one she suggested.

    For cookies, you can always add in 1/3 whole wheat, same with pancakes... even more if you wish. And add oats to these as well. Even for cookies that are not oatmeal cookise, add a little bit. Make cookies with dark chocolate or any myriad of dried fruit. Do pan cookies if you wish.

    Cottage cheese. Sugar-free jelly mix. Ice cubes, and something if your choice (frozen fruit, chocolate, etc).

    Stick it in a blender and whir up until really thick and the ice cubes are completely crushed. Then stick in the freeze for a few hours to chill; every half hour, stir it to prevent it become a block of ice.

    Serve on a frozen banana.omnomnom.

    The black bean bownies are so amazing...so much moister and I actually prefer them over regular brownies!

    Otherwise, I eat whatever dessert I want. I'm a big fan of homemade smores, I use semi sweet chocolate chips and cook my marshmellows under the broiler in my over.
  • some really Great Ideas thank you so much everyone

    Those all look amazing, but I imagine the calorie counts are pretty high, though the use of natural ingredients is always a major plus.
    I am afraid I would probably make and end up eating the whole lot, lol.
