WW Sweets / Desserts Recipes

[mommy2emily]

Anyone have any low point desserts or snack recipes for Weight Watchers points?
I love sweets and am looking for some low point snacks, especially anything chocolatey

Have you gone to the forums at WW? You do not have to be a paying member to join/post on the forums and they have tons of recipes in the threads. Word of caution though - always double check the numbers yourself because many times they are not quite right.

This one is a family favorite and you can switch it up by changing the flavor of the Crystal Light. You can also buy a lowfat graham cracker ready made crust, but double check the points


Lemonade Pie

8 oz. Fat Free Cool Whip
1 (1 oz.) Package Sugar Free Instant Vanilla Pudding Mix
2 Cups Skim Milk
1 Tub Crystal Light Sugar Free Lemonade Soft Drink Mix
1/3 Cup Graham Cracker Crumbs
3 Packets Splenda

Spray sides and bottom of a 9” pie pan with butter flavored non-stick spray. Sprinkle graham crackers in bottom and up sides evenly. Set aside. In a medium bowl, combine pudding, milk, Splenda, and lemonade mix with a wire whisk until blended well. Place in refrigerator until set (about 20 minutes). Fold in cool whip. Spread mixture evenly over graham cracker crust. Place in refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight.

Hi greeneeyes,

I've tried the weight watchers forums, but I think I am doing something wrong as I haven't located any recipes yet?

Check out the Recipe Review board, that is one I really enjoy. You can also do a recipe search

Have you tried diet coke cakes or cupcakes? They are surprisingly super moist and delicious! Basically you take any boxed cake/cupcake powder and mix in one can of diet soda, then cook according to package directions... omitting everything else (eggs, oil, water, butter, etc). My fave combo is devil's food mix and diet Dr. Pepper... or for something different, diet Cherry Coke. If you do a white/yellow cake it would be best to do a diet sprite type drink.

If you need frosting, there's also a recipe for Cool Whip recipe. You mix one cup fat-free milk, 1/4 cup powdered sugar, and 1 small box sugar-free powdered pudding mix. After it combines, you add it to an 8-ounce container of thawed Cool Whip free. You can use any pudding flavor. I love love love using a chocolate one on top of my devil's food cupcake but for some people this could be too much chocolate.

I discovered this dessert on WW but it has become my favorite non-diet dessert as well!
