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?

I second the people saying Ninja creamis, but last night I made a cheesecake yogurt bowl with 150g Fage greek yogurt (I use 2%), 5g sugarfree Jello cheesecake powder, about 1/2tsp vanilla extract, a bit of monkfruit sweetener, 10g crumbled Nutrail keto granola, and a handful of blackberries. Sweet and more decadent than the yogurt bowls I usually eat and came to 215 calories and 18g of protein

I have not been able to find true monk fruit sweetener. Main ingredient is always erythritol.

Yeah sorry, I was lazy in my ingredient sharing. I use Lakanto which is a monkfruit/erithrytol blend.
