Pineapple-Raspberry Parfaits
You won't mind serving dessert on a busy weeknight after assembling these quick parfaits.
Blueberry & White Chocolate Chunk Ginger Cookies
These easy cookies are a real snap to make - just stir and bake.
Broiled Mango
Broiling fruit brings out its inherent sweetness. A squeeze of tart lime juice balances it out. Try this technique with pineapple as well.
Cherries with Ricotta & Toasted Almonds
Warm cherries topped with luscious ricotta cheese and toasted almonds makes for a rich-tasting—yet calorie-conscious—treat.
Grilled Dark Chocolate Sandwich
Both simpler and more decadent than a chocolate croissant, a grilled chocolate sandwich is a marriage of bread and chocolate in which the two components are evenly matched.
Baby Tiramisù
If you're a fan of the classic Italian dessert Tiramisu, try this quick, lower-calorie variation the next time you need a dessert in a hurry. Both types of ladyfingers—spongy and crunchy—work well.
Indoor S'Mores
You don't have to sit around a fire to enjoy S'mores. Just be sure to watch them carefully under the broiler—the marshmallows can go from perfectly toasted to charcoal in a hurry.
Leave room for these quick and easy, impromptu desserts.
Whether you’re counting calories and looking for something nutritious to satisfy your sweet tooth or simply longing for something other than your usual bowl of ice cream, these quick and simple desserts are for you. Ready in 30 minutes or less and full of healthy ingredients, these are your go-to weeknight desserts you’ll find yourself coming back to again and again. They taste great and can be served to anyone without apology (and with high expectations of success). So enjoy every bite!
