    My mom made the BEST peach raspberry cobbler!!! You put your fruit and berries in a casserole dish, evenly top them with a dry white cake mix, and cover that with diet sprite...i think she got it from weight watchers...it was sooo good!!!! You could even use a reduced sugar cake mix! You would never know it was made without butter!

    I just made cupcakes with a box of angel food cake and a can of pineapple. If you take those, put light cool whip and sliced strawberries it would a different take on strawberry shortcake. I made 21 cupcakes and each 90 calories.

    I am not sure of the calorie content but if you made that like a cake and put a layer of the jello sugar free cheesecake pudding and strawberries, it would be kind of like the Angel Lush recipe.

    I feel like I'm always answering questions like this with "Hungry Girl," but I really like a lot of her swaps, like this one for chocolate mousse:

    or this one, for two-ingredient cakes (including diet soda and cake, which a lot of people swear by. I like cake mix and pumpkin):

    This is my recipe for fruit salad:
    Honey greek yogurt. (you can use any other yogurt flavor that you like. I just love the honey yogurt)
    fruit cut up into bite size chunks. I use bananas, apples, grapes and strawberries.
    Mix it all together and it is ready to serve. No need for any sweetener since the fruit cut up will add it's own sugars and the yogurt is already sweet as well.

    Our fav is no cal jelly (or jello) and fruit, with just a dash of cream or low cal equivalent.

    This is always a favorite among friends:


    Chocolate Pie

    2 Low Fat Graham Cracker pie shell
    1 Family Size Sugar Free Chocolate Pudding mix (make with fat free milk to save on the calories)
    1 Light Cool Whip


    Make the pudding as directed on the box (so far no one has been able to tell that I use sugar free pudding mix or fat free milk). Pour half of the mixture into each pie shell. Top with half each of the cool whip. Chill for at least 4 hours.
