Low-Fat and Low-Calorie Alternatives for Your Favorite Desserts

Chocolate Milk: Did you know that Nestles Quick has only 0.5 grams of fat in a 2-tablespoon serving? The secret in using Nestle Quick is to stir it into skim or 1% milk instead of whole milk. Chocolate syrup is just as low in fat.

Fudge: Many people think fudge is high in calories and fat, and yet, compared with many chocolate bars, it isn't. A 1-ounce cube of fudge (a generous chunk) has only 3.4 grams of fat and 112 calories. That is 10 grams of fat less than a Snickers bar.

Italian Ice: When you are enjoying an Italian ice, what you taste is the sugary syrup -- which contains no fat. But beware: a cup of Italian ice has about 247 calories. It may not be the best choice for a calorie counter.

Pudding: Rice and tapioca may look bad for you because they are so rich and thick. But one serving of either pudding contains fewer than 20 calories and less than 5 grams of fat.
