Name: Blueberry Icebox Pie
Yield: Makes 10 servings
Ingredients: Vegetable-oil cooking spray; 1 1/2 cups finely ground reduced-fat graham cracker crumbs; 4 tsp light (reduced-fat) butter, melted; 2 cups fresh blueberries (or frozen and thawed); 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice; 2 tsp powdered unflavored gelatin; 8 oz reduced-fat cream cheese; 8 oz fat-free cream cheese; 14 oz fat-free sweetened condensed milk; Several fresh mint leaves

The trick: Fake a little fat.
What better way to eat your fill of antioxidant-rich blueberries than via cheesecake? Executive chef Terry Conlan of Lake Austin Spa Resort in Austin, Texas, makes over dessert-tray favorites, like this Blueberry Icebox Pie, by mixing lowfat and nonfat products rather than using all fat-free foods. For your favorite recipes, replace full-fat dairy with 50 percent lowfat and 50 percent fat-free.

Recipe notes

Luscious Banana Pudding

Layer homemade custard, ripe bananas, and vanilla wafers under clouds of whipped cream for this iconic dessert.

Rye, Cranberry, and Dark Chocolate Cookies

This cookie is an unintended “celebrity.” It’s one of very few cookies that customers ask for specifically upon arrival at Mokonuts.

3-Minute Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting

Consider every birthday cake, brownie, and cupcake covered (in this frosting, that is).

Black Sesame Tofu “Basque” Cheesecake

There are many things that appeal about a Basque cheesecake—it's crustless (one less job) and is meant to look “rustic” with its wrinkled and jagged sides.

Grasshopper Brownies

These decadent brownies feature a sweet, minty topping complemented by a rich dark chocolate ganache and mini chocolate chips for added texture.

Sour Cherry and Campari Galette

This Campari-spiked galette features the herbal aperitif, tart cherries, and floral citrus zest and is perfect for those who prefer bitter to sweet.

Mississippi Mud Cake

This cake was created from thrift and was supposedly named after its appearance, which reminded people of the muddy Mississippi River bottom.
