If you’re in need and looking for the best summer sweet treats to satisfy your cravings but aren’t interested in indulging in aggressively high calories, then this is right where you need to be. I understand better than no one the struggle and strength it takes to say no to a ginormous hot fudge brownie sundae on a nightly basis but unfortunately due to that fact that downing nearly 1000 calories a night might not be the most ideal way to stay in shape, I had to get creative to curve my unbelievably uncontrollable sweet tooth somehow. If you’re anything like me then, then please join me in satisfying ourselves with these healthy summer dessert recipes.
These whipped little bundles of joy are honestly a gift from the heavens above and the best part is that they are unbelievably easy to create and make a great dessert to bring by a friend’s BBQ cookout. With only three ingredients, being peanut butter, whipped topping and sugar-free hot fudge, these little babies are the perfect sweet treat to satisfy that hot fudge brownie craving.
I’m not going to lie, I think yogurt bark is way too underrated, am I right? It’s literally the easiest recipe to make and tastes so damn delicious. Not to mention it’s healthy and uses fresh ingredients to keep you feeling your best when standing poolside in a bikini. The best part about this particular yogurt bark is that it’s frozen, so when you’re feeling a little overheated and craving some sweets, break off a piece of frozen yogurt bark and let the sweet flavours melt in your mouth.
Fruit salad with cinnamon sugar nacho chips, I mean, come on, who doesn’t love nachos? Even better question, who doesn’t love cinnamon sugar nachos scooping up a fresh, sweet, delicious fruit salad?! I apologize if you’re drooling, I don’t blame you. This recipe is great for so many reasons, the most important being that it’s healthy, so indulging in just a little more than your stomach can handle will be pretty much guilt free.
I don’t know about you guys but I actually crave ice pops when I’m out in the sun. Something about an icy sweet treat has always been my favorite part about summer. Whether it be fruity, chocolaty or milky, I can’t get enough, but my absolute favorite is these strawberry swirl cheesecake ice pops. I am telling you these little things are so delicious and pretty darn easy to make that you’ll probably want to have them on hand in your freezer all summer long.
One of the most fun and easy sweet treats to make this summer are these watermelon fries with coconut lime dip. As we all know, watermelon is such a great treat to stay hydrated and refreshed in the summer, so slicing it up on the side of a tangy dip is such a perfectly delicious match, if you try this recipe I can almost bet you’ll be serving it up weekly.
When you’re craving something sweet, bananas are always a great option. Bananas dipped in chocolate, covered in a variety of your favorite toppings and then frozen is an even better sweet treat to satisfy that sweet tooth hankering. This recipe is so easy and fun to make, you can make an afternoon out of it with your best gal pals, not to mention, it’s a great healthy alternative no matter which way you cover it!
