Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough (for One)

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough (for One)

This dessert recipe has turned into one of my favorites. It's TINY and you'll finish it in a couple of bites, but it should satisfy your desire for something sweet and indulgent.

It contains healthy fats to satisfy your cravings and it's low in sugar so it won't trigger an all out sugar binge.

Toasted Pecan Dessert (for One)

The other night after dinner, I was craving something sweet. Since I don't keep any pre-made sweets at home, I have to make dessert if I want dessert! So with only 4 ingredients, I came up with something simple that I'm going to share with you today.

What's awesome is that this dessert is high in fat and protein (so it'll fill you up) and it's cleanse-friendly (so you won't feel bloated or experience a sugar hangover afterward).

But you see, I don't feel like I'm depriving myself at all. Why? Because over the years I've discovered the art of making desserts in single serving sizes that not only satisfy my post-meal craving for something sweet, but that don't make me feel disgusting afterward.

This is my "go-to" sugar-free dessert when I'm craving something after dinner that will satisfy me without derailing my healthy eating efforts.
