Dessert/Sweet Tooth Snack Ideas

I make my Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Balls!

5 tablespoons quick oats
2 tablespoons PB2 (or you can do regular ol' peanut butter. Calories will change)
1 tablespoon semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-2 packets of Sweet 'n Low
2-3 tablespoons of water

Mix that sucker up and then form balls with your hands and pop 'em in the freezer for at least 50 minutes to an hour.

That entire batch comes out to 227 calories! Fills you up and your sweet tooth is gone!

I'm partial to DQ Blizzards in the evening as a nice dessert.

My local DQ was doing a BOGO on any size Red Velvet Blizzards the other day, so I bought two mediums and just finished up the bit of the second one this evening.

You can also go to DQ.com and subscribe to the Blizzard of the Month Club where they send you a BOGO Coupon on any size blizzard. You also get an extra BOGO coupon on your birthday.

Special K makes these new little treats that are only 70 calories and very yummy. Pretzel caramel and coconut dark chocolate.

I second the yogurt mixed with sf pudding mix - did that tonight.

1/2 cup plain yogurt (not greek, I use regular)
1/4 packet sf white chocolate pudding (just the mix, not prepared)

Added 1/2 cup unsweetened apple sauce and a dash of cinnamon on top, parfait style - super yum.

Then sometimes I'll do chocolate hazelnut spread over a rice cake. You just have to be sure to weigh out the spread.

Bump for yums

This is a great site! I've also recently discovered this site: http://dhftns.com/

It's the best thing I've found for those who count macronutrients and like large servings of desserts. Some recipes are better than others, but it's definitely worth a look.

Luna bars-they kill my sweet tooth almost immediately. You could also try making your own granola bars to tailor to your tastes and get some better nutrients in there.

Vita top deep chocolate muffin tops-these are awesome! They taste between a mix of a brownie and cake for only 100 cals! They they are fairly large so you feel like you're getting a worth while snack. You can break it up and top it with low calorie pudding and whipped cream. But there are other recipes on the net if you want to get creative!

Berries and whipped cream- tasty, sweet, filing snack. You could even melt a couple chocolate chips or a good dark chocolate and drizzle a little over it for a little choco-berry action!

Another thing I like to do is make my own low calorie "pudding pie". You take some graham crackers and crush them up mix with a little bit of melted butter and cinnamon then place in the bottom of an 8x8 pan. Bake at 375 for 7 mins. Then you can make a low sugar pudding of your choice and then spread in there and top with lite whipped topping. It's fairly low calorie and it really kills that pie craving. You can get really creative with this. You can do this with banana pudding too and it's like banana cream pie!

Smoothies are a great way to kill sweet tooth and you can really get creative. Like if you are craving apple pie you can make your smoothie like an apple pie would kind of taste. Instead of something like ice cream you can try low calorie creamer with some ice cubes to give it a little bit of a creamy taste.

Cheesecake Cloud bites-low carb and fairly low calorie if you use low fat cream cheese. You can find the recipe on pinterest or google.

Baked apple topped with cinnamon and a tiny bit of brown sugar and mmmm

There is a great recipe for pumpkin fluff on allrecipes.com and it's a pretty good snack with a couple of graham crackers. My fiancè likes it as well so it's a good one!

Diet root beer with 1/4 cup vanilla ice cream and you have a root beer float!

Low calorie hot cocoa really helps with a sweet tooth for me sometimes as well.

You can get the mini cups of ice cream like Ben and Jerry's or Edy's at the store and you won't go overboard like me! lol

Hope some of this helps!

Biggest Loser Chocolate-Peanut Butter Grahamwiches

4 whole chocolate graham crackers
4 teaspoons reduced-fat peanut butter
1/2 cup frozen fat-free whipped topping, thawed

It's a really good frozen treat!

Bump for later:-)

Frozen bananas, a little almond milk, maybe some vanilla extract and/or a few pitted dates, maybe some cinnamon. Blend it up, and add crushed walnuts. Comes out just like ice cream.
