Need Yummy Dessert

Hi, there is a low calorie pineapple/strawberry Angel food cake listed on the recipe forum,( 1st or 2 nd page I think)........... I made it about 2 weeks ago and it was good, for a 2x2 in square I calculated it to be about 75 calories per square.........hope this helps

The angel food cake thing is okay. It's one box of angel food cake mix and either a can of crushed pineapple or a can of pie filling. That's it. Pour it into a 9x13 pan and bake till done. Or any box cake or brownie mix with a can of diet soda.

Or have real cake.

Fresh strawberries. Mix Ricotta Cheese with a bit of Cointreau, and use that for dipping. Or Chocolate dipping sauce is good too. If you want, you can stick to the strawberries by themselves.

Have a selection of desserts or high quality chocolates available in small portion sizes, so everyone can choose, and you can choose the thing that you want.

Fruit and cheese platter.

And... Happy Birthday!

Do you like apples, strawberries, or peaches? If so, take a small amount of sugar, a spice (cinnamon for apples, lemon zest for strawberries, or nutmeg with the peaches) and a chopped up fruit of your choice. Saute them in coconut oil for about 2-3 minutes then take out. Drop a spoonful of Nutella on them while still warm and dig in. It's like a chocolate fruit pie without the crust.

Thanks Everyone, and for the recipes!!!! Those who asked why I can't have cake.....honestly, It's like an addiction once I have a piece I want another one so it's just best I find an alternative dessert that is healthier, and even tho I would like to have that Control to just have one piece and be satisfied, I know I would give in and binge> I'm still a work in progress.

we are all a work in progress! I agree, if any of us could just eat one piece of cake or do food in moderation there wouldn't be so many overweight people on here! Moderation is tough! Like you I just don't even start with the addicting food or I have a hard time stopping...

how about getting single portions of something decadent (if that's what you want)? this way, no leftovers.

Or go with cheesecake - cheesecake can seriously be made low fat, and garnished with fresh fruit, and who doesn't love cheese cake (except all you's who don't ).

I have a birthday coming up too and i think that what i'm going to do is get *a* decadent dessert and share it with my son. I'm not going to make it, even though i could make it cheaper and better at home, because if i make it at home i'm going to eat more than *a* portion. they make these great individual gooey triple layer chocolatty nutty things. Or maybe not. We'll see what happens when the day comes...

Have a small piece of your favourite cake or even better split a regular sized one with a friend. Are you going to never eat cake again, ever in your entire life? You need to learn how and when to indulge. Your birthday is one of those occasions where it's okay to relax and enjoy yourself, in fact it's very healthy.

Well happy birthday later:) Another tip you can utilize, especially if you go with a regular cake and are afraid of over eating, once you have your piece, stay away from the food table so it wont tempt you and make sure the rest is packaged up and put away. Get busy with something else.
Another tip that I utilize everytime I cook (so I dont "taste" things while making them) is once you are done and satisfied, stick a piece of gum in your mouth. You will think twice about eating something else because the mint gum flavor doesnt go well with other foods and it will keep your mouth busy.
