desserts

raw cashews, the tart dried cherries you buy at Costco and a few chocolate chips
glass of red wine and square of dark chocolate
1/2 green monster smoothie
chocolate protein shake

raspberries
I made chocolate zucchini muffins two days ago and they only have 122 calories I think. (High carbs, maybe 26?) I froze them and popped one in the microwave today. YUM.

red grapefruit

edamame (dry roasted, lightly salted; wish I could find unsalted)

Do you like sweets? Will nuts satisfy you? I go for carbs. I have plain oatmeal with a lot of raspberries and a huge dash of cinnamon almost every evening. I consider that dessert.

Oh yeah .. pomegranate seeds.

These aren't the GREATEST, but hey, if you gotta sugar craving...
Lollipops are another good option. They take forever to eat. I like Yummy Earth ones.
Gummy bears
Saltwater taffy
"smores"-a few mini marshmellows, chocolate chips and graham crackers or graham snacks like Teddy grahams(Annies makes a better, all natural version of their bunnies)
Trader Joes has a GREAT graonla bar called a Brownie Oat bar. I don't have any on hand, but I think 1 bar is under 200 calories.

mix it with a can of diet soda (I use diet cherry 7-up) instead of the eggs and oil.

whaaat i have never heard of this! very interesting.

I make "diet cupcakes" that only have around 90 calories a piece. All you do is take a cake mix (I love the funfetti kind) and mix it with a can of diet soda (I use diet cherry 7-up) instead of the eggs and oil. One batch makes 24 cupcakes. They don't really have anything in them that's "good for you" (not really any fiber or protein). But when you really want something sweet, as I often do, I can have one (or two on a bad day) without getting myself off track. I actually think they taste better this way than made with the normal ingredients.

For frosting, you can use a packet of sugar free vanilla yogurt mixed into a container of fat free cool whip. I prefer mine with no frosting though.

That cupcake recipe sounds really good! I will definitely have to try it someday!

And to satisfy my sweet tooth (and I have a really BAD one...), I like sugar free Jell-o cups and the sugar free Jell-o pudding cups! I'm eating one right now The gelatin cups are only 10 calories, and the pudding only 60. Special K bars are good, too. That's all I can think of right now, but if I think of more, I'll post them!

I use this recipe for cupcakes instead of buying the mixes and diet soda (personal preference)

120g unsalted softened butter
2/3 cup caster sugar
1 1/2 cup self raising flour
1/2 cup skimmed milk
2 tsp vanilla essence
2 eggs

Jam and whipped cream for topping

Put it all in a bowl and mix until pale and smooth. Put into 24 cupcake holders and bake for around 20 mins. Cool and cut out a hole fill with a small bit of jam and cream. Got yourself a fairy cake. They are 109 calories including the jam and cream which I think is amazing.

I also get greek yogurt and mix in some frozen berries, let it defrost for a short while and you have fake berry icecream.

Jelly is a goo one with tinned or fresh fruit.

You can also make some banana cookies:

3 medium ripe bananas
2 cups rolled oats
1 cup raisins
1/3 cup oil
1 tsp vanilla essence

Mash bananas, add other ingredients, add a bit of salt to taste. Sit for 15 mins bake for 20 mins at 180 degrees Celsius.

These are 74 calories each for a tablespoon sized cookie.

There are a lot of things you can have out there, you just have to do a bit of digging. I love my sweet things to so I go out of my way to make things that fill a gap. Good luck.
