I really want to bake/make some type of dessert this weekend. I've done sugar-free for long periods of time in the past but I used to load myself up with equal like there was no tomorrow which I have since decided against. So does anyone have any great dessert recipe that requires no added sugar or that can be done with stevia(truvia) or perhaps a very small amount of splenda. All dessert ideas welcome. Extra points for something chocolate or pumpkin!! :) Thanks everyone!!

    I saw an article once that had a formula for replacing sugar with apple sauce. I just can't remember what it was (I wish I'd kept the article). Try to google it and see what you can find.

    my favorite 5 minute sugarfree recipe is 2 packages of ff/sugarfree vanilla pudding make as usual per package instructions ( I use 1% milk but u can u what you like mix this then combine with large tub ff/sugarfree whipped topping adding 1 tsp cinnamon and then layering a trifle bowl with sugerfree vanilla wafers and sliced bananas. I just served this to my mom who had the big D and hates sugerfree products and she didn't realize it was!

    I'd LOVE to make this for my husband who has the big 'D' but I'm not clear on the instructions. So I make the sugar free vanilla pudding as normal. Then I add 1tsp cinnamon to the whipped topping or the pudding? thanks for sharing! :)

    One of my favorite snacks that feels like a dessert is 1 cup Fage 0% greek yogurt, 1/4 cup pure pumpkin, tsp pumpkin pie spice and a packet of Splenda. Calories = 140, carbs = 12 and protein is a whopping 20g! Tastes like pumpkin mousse.

    And you can use Splenda in place of sugar in any recipe, and applesauce or pumpkin in place of oils. I make my cupcakes and muffins this way and they are always moist and delicious!
