    I have a mad sweet tooth, especially after I eat in the evening , The best tricks I use are can of Coke Zero or worthers sugar free

    How low cal? I just discovered Dark Chocolate Kodiak Power Cakes flapjack mix and love it. It's about 200 cals for a serving, but has 14g protein. I make it with egg whites and greek yogurt for extra protein & and a tablespoon of chocolate chips for yum and it makes an nice 300 cal high protein meal or snack that reminds me a lot of chocolate cake.

  • Trader joes makes a 100 calorie chocolate bar. It's a pretty decent size for 100 calories! I found them on the shelves above the frozen food section. They make them in milk and dark chocolate :)

    Also Fiber One 90 calorie brownies are awesome and taste pretty rich, given they're not expected to be anything special.

    half a banana, 1 cup milk, 1 tbs cocoa powder. Put it in a blender or food processor and you have a thick chocolate shake.

    Or try a microwave brownie. Use peanut butter instead of oil. You don't need an egg.

    Another vote for Fiber One Brownies! The first time I had one I was a little disappointed at the size of it, but they taste really nice and make a decadent-feeling snack for relatively few calories. If you cut it into small pieces you can (try to) nibble on it more slowly and make it last longer too! :)

    Another chocolatey treat I like is the fat-free Fudgsicle bars which are 40 calories each. My local store(s) seem to have stopped carrying them lately and I miss them!

    I also used to buy dark chocolate and just have a square or two of that (65-130 cals for the brand I bought), but I've got out of that habit and don't feel the need for it any more. :)

    Another vote here for the fiber one brownies. They really are so good and only 90 calories. But also, there is an instant pudding from WonderSlim. 90 cals, tastes great. I had the banana last light. Such a treat.

    Ghiradelli dark chocolate squares - more chocolate goodness, less sugar

    Yogi Mayan Cocoa Spice tea, milk & a little sugar, yum

    Reduced calorie hot chocolate..... 3⁄4 cup baking cocoa, 1 cup Splenda sugar substitute, 2 1⁄4 cups nonfat dry milk powder. 21 servings (Food.com) - add 3 Tbls. to boiling water

    I wish I could tolerate Fiber One (chicory root) - nasty side effects for me

    I do the same thing with the banana, but without the milk. It is more pudding like. Sometimes I freeze it for a more ice cream like version. I up the cocoa, because I like really dark chocolate. Up to you how much or little you use!

    Well you can go the 'one square of dark chocolate' route.

    Or if you want something more nutritious, chocolate protein powder/protein bar, or yeah, I love Kodiak cake dark chocolate pancakes too. Those kill my chocolate cake cravings, I just mix it with water and it's 190 calories and 14g of protein (plus fiber). I do put nut butter on top though.

    I like yasso fudge bars for 80 calories too!

    Love dark cocoa powder too! Around 10 calories/tbsp.
    I love to sprinkle some on greek plain yogurt - some stevia and toasted nuts and banana slices yum!
    I even sprinkle some on cottage cheese with stevia.

    I absolutely rely on unsweetened cocoa powder for chocolate cravings. Mostly just put it in my smoothies.

    It depends on what you mean by low calorie. For me that would be <50 cals. Maybe 2 Hershey's kisses. <100, try mini candy bars now that Halloween sales are strong (at least up here).

    I just keep Lite Hershey's syrup in my refrigerator. If I want something chocolately, I either have that over a sliced banana, or make a glass of chocolate milk with it using Fairlife milk (extra protein with that).

    the darker the chocolate the lower the cals. I have treat of 85% cocoa solids chocolate a few times a week when cutting.

    This. Sorry, but screw the 100 calorie brownies. Eat a pint of this for 240.

    I am totally in for the Halo Top chocolate ice cream. :)

    Mint chip is my current favorite, at least until I find mocha chip. But it's literally killing me that they haven't come out with a chocolate peanut butter flavor. Literally.
