    This is SOOO good and if you go easy on the portions it truly can be 150 calories!

    Combination of cake, chocolate and fruit makes a tasty Mexican dessert - ready in 15 minutes. From eatbetteramerica.

    This isn't really a recipe but it's a zero calorie fix and I love it!!! I just take a bottle of vitamin water zero Squeezed and pop it in the freezer. it's like a lemonade slushy and it has no calories no sugar no nothing. I can't drink the water straight for some reason cuz the truvia makes it seem way to sweet but when it's frozen I really like it. Odd but it works!

    I haven't personally made this yet, but my friend just sent me the recipe yesterday since she knew I was counting calories.

    Low-Fat Chocolate Chip Cookies

    INGREDIENTS:
    2 Tbsp stick butter or stick margarine, softened
    1/4 cup sugar
    2 Tbsp Light brown sugar
    1 egg white
    1/2 tsp vanilla extract
    1/2 cup all-purpose flour
    1/4 tsp baking soda
    1/8 tsp salt
    2 Tbsp cocoa powder
    ¼ cup + 1 Tbsp semi-sweet chocolate chips

    PREPARATION:
    Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
    1. In a large bowl, beat butter and sugars together with an electric mixer until creamy. Add egg white and vanilla and mix until well blended.
    2. In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda, salt and cocoa powder.
    3. Gradually add flour mixture to egg and sugar. Use a wooden spoon to work the dough together. Don't worry if the dough seems a little crumbly at first. Stir in chocolate chips.
    4. Drop cookie dough by the teaspoonful on to a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat if you have one.
    5. Bake for 8-10 minutes. Cool on cookie sheet for 1 minute, then transfer to wire rack to cool completely.

    Makes 15 cookies

    One thing I like is to take an Activia Dessert Yogurt (Vanilla Bean) and freeze it. It's not exactly like ice cream, but I like it. I think it's 140 calories if I'm not mistaken. :smile:

    P.S. It comes out the freezer hard, so I nuke mine in the microwave for about 15 secs.

    I do this with all the flavors and types of yogurt. The berry flavors are just like sherbert. and it takes longer to eat then when it is soft.

    Black and White Angel Food Cake

    YIELD: 12 servings (serving size: 1 slice)

    Ingredients
    Cake:
    1 cup cake flour (about 4 ounces)
    1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, divided
    1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    12 large egg whites
    1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
    1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
    2 tablespoons unsweetened dark cocoa (such as Hershey's Special Dark)
    Glaze:
    1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
    2 tablespoons tub light cream cheese, softened
    1 tablespoon 1% low-fat milk
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    3/4 teaspoon unsweetened dark cocoa (such as Hershey's Special Dark)
    Topping:
    Sliced strawberries (optional)

    Preparation

    Preheat oven to 325°.

    To prepare cake, lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife. Combine flour and 3/4 cup granulated sugar, stirring with a whisk; set aside.

    Place cream of tartar, salt, and egg whites in a large bowl; beat with a mixer at high speed until foamy. Add remaining 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating until stiff peaks form. Beat in juice and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla. Sift flour mixture over egg white mixture, 1/4 cup at a time; fold in after each addition.

    Spoon half of batter into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan, spreading evenly. Break air pockets by cutting through batter with a knife. Sift 2 tablespoons cocoa over remaining batter; fold in. Spoon cocoa batter evenly over top of vanilla batter; break air pockets by cutting through cocoa layer with a knife. Bake at 325° for 55 minutes or until cake springs back when lightly touched. Invert pan; cool completely. Loosen cake from sides of pan using a narrow metal spatula. Invert cake onto a plate.

    To prepare glaze, place powdered sugar, cream cheese, milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla in a medium bowl; beat with a mixer at medium speed until smooth. Drizzle half of glaze over cake.
    Add 3/4 teaspoon cocoa to remaining glaze; stir well to combine. Drizzle cocoa glaze over cake. Refrigerate 5 minutes or until glaze is set. Garnish with strawberries, if desired
