*Homemade chocolate pudding with low- or non-fat milk

*Meringues -- they're fat-free and low-cal, so having a few is ok.

*Biscotti (
oblong, thick, brittle cookies designed to be dipped in coffee, cocoa, or wine)

*Your favorite ice cream in a 1/2 cup portion-control bowl.

*Fruit Sorbet

*Homemade ice cream sandwiches

(graham crackers and reduced-fat ice cream)
