Dessert

Homemade Snickers Bars These homemade snickers bars are as if a Twix and a Snickers had a baby.  And I am not mad about it!  I first made this recipe for The Chopping Block.  If you would have asked when I posted that recipe on their website I would have said three years ago.  It was NINE years ago!  So crazy! One of the reasons...

Thanksgiving Dinner for Under $30 I am always up for a budget challenge, so when Metro Market asked if I could do a thanksgiving dinner for under $30, I said “challenge accepted!” Happliy, I pulled off a full Thanksgiving dinner for under $30 this year, and it all came down to a few simple swaps that made a big impact. Instead of splurging on a...

Life’s Too Short (Eat the Cookie) Life is short. We never know what tomorrow will bring, and sometimes, it’s the little joys (like a cookie) that make today a little brighter. If you’re on a weight loss journey, or even managing diabetes, it can feel like certain foods are “off-limits.” I’ve learned the hard way that when I tell myself I can’t have a cookie,...

Homemade Yasso Bars These homemade Yasso bars are so delicious.  Seriously, the best dessert I think I’ve ever made.  Are these Weight Watchers friendly? Absolutely!  That’s what your weeklies are for.  Ingredients needed nonfat Greek yogurt protein powder (we used FlavCity – don’t forget to use my code Bizzy15 to save 15% through December 2025) cool whip vanilla extract powdered peanut butter peanuts melting chocolate...

Cheesecake Jars These cheesecake jars are almost no bake.  The fruit filling is my very berry sauce (recipe below) that can be made with any combination of fresh or frozen fruit.  Blueberries are my favorite, so we used blueberries in this recipe.  While these come in at 10 Weight Watchers points, each one is only 244 calories, 15 fat, 24 carbs, 2 fiber and 6...

Chocolate Chip Pistachio Cookies Sometimes the best way to say “I’m sorry” is with cookies. These Chocolate Chip Pistachio Cookies were my heartfelt peace offering to my neighbors after my dog Todd had what I can only describe as a full-on main character meltdown on our block. We were simply passing each other on the sidewalk when their tiny (but very vocal) pup started yipping...

Silken Tofu Pudding If I didn’t make this silken tofu pudding myself, I would never guess that there is tofu in it.  While I am known for my Weight Watchers recipes, this dessert is 9 Weight Watchers points.  However, it’s only 238 calories per serving, so I am enjoy this without any guilt. The base of this recipe is not mine.  Sarah’s Vegan Kitchen is...

Canned Cherry Pie Bars Some recipes, as much as I try, I cannot make them all Weight Watchers recipe friendly.  And by that I mean that most people on Weight Watchers are looking for the LOWEST point everything.  Side note:  I think I love these canned cherry pie bars more than cherry pie! However, these canned cherry pie bars are only 190 calories each, and...

Orange Creamsicle Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting These orange creamsicle cupcakes with cream cheese frosting are hands down the best cupcakes I’ve ever made.  Each one with frosting is only 7 Weight Watchers points! We made these cupcakes in three versions: ‘ plain which are 5 Weight Watchers points and 148 calories, 3 fat, 33 carbs, 1 fiber and 3 protein low calorie cream cheese...

Breakfast Cookies My twin sister and I have been trying to recreate Weight Watchers friendly breakfast cookies after we bought Baker’s Breakfast Cookies nearly 25 years ago.  While these aren’t exactly it, it’s the closest I’ve gotten to a good breakfast cookie that doesn’t blow your Weight Watchers budget.  Each cookie is only 2 Weight Watchers points! Trying to reduce the WW points in a...
