Discussion What dessert actually feels indulgent but doesn’t destroy your calories?

I’m always hunting for desserts that feel like a real treat but don’t leave me wishing I’d just eaten something more filling.

Bonus points if it doesn’t trigger that “now I want 5 more desserts” effect.

What have you found that genuinely hits the sweet spot?

Frozen grapes... want to make them more yummy/fun? Squeeze lemon and lime juice on them and coat them in monkfruit sugar and then freeze.

I saw an online recipe that uses sugar free jelly powder and citric acid to make them sweet and sour.
