Guilt-Free Chocolate Desserts

What could be a sweeter holiday gift than a chocolate dessert that tastes wickedly wonderful despite being low in sugar and fat? That's the idea behind these six treats, which, thanks to the use of the sugar substitute Splenda, let you have your Christmas cookies and eat them, too--with as few as 7 g of carbohydrates (and that's for a rich, creamy cocoa cheesecake!).
But in addition to satisfying your sweet tooth, these delicious desserts are packed with ingredients such as green tea, bananas, cinnamon, walnuts, and berries, which all are proven to play a pivotal role in preventing disease--particularly heart disease, the leading cause of death among women.

Here are 6 sinfully delicious confections that won't damage your waistline, I know they look good but please refrain from licking the screen.

Mini Cocoa Swirl Cheesecakes

Green Tea Truffles

Chocolate-Walnut Macaroons
(~~darn, no picture~~, it's with the truffles)

Flourless Chocolate-Raspberry Cakes

Chocolate Berry Cups
