There isn’t a home cook around who doesn’t like to have a few tricks in his/her kitchen for an interesting tasty dessert that will appeal to those who have to watch their calories. The secret is to have desserts that fill this need, but don’t taste like it. Dessert making is the culinary genre with a dash of the alchemy of befoolery. You want to have the appeal be richly irresistible, but have the element of ease of preparation, too. If you can throw in the element of not-so-fat-laden that cannot be detected by the tongue, you are a kitchen wizard to be sure.
Flavor is the ultimate imperative. Take three delicious flavor innovations, exotic yet homespun at the same time—lime, banana, and chocolate. What makes an uncooked pie taste so darned good? The flavors. The cold creamy textures really add to the esthetic joy of devouring a slice.
