Wanting dessert while keeping carbs in check can make the usual bakery case feel like a dead end. Over years of developing recipes for the site, these 23 have moved from mixing bowls and freezer molds to plates, cups, and scraped-clean dishes, so the collection reflects sweets that hold up beyond the first test. There are creamy cheesecakes, chilled puddings, fruit-forward treats, chocolate bakes, and frozen pops, with both quick options and make-ahead desserts.
Coconut Ice Cream
Rich coconut milk and whipped cream form the base of Coconut Ice Cream, with sugar substitute, xanthan gum, and glycerin helping the mixture stay smoother. It takes 10 minutes to mix before going into an ice cream maker or freezer. Spoon it into coconut bowls or cones, then add berries or coconut shreds when a cold dessert sounds better than another baked treat.
