Skinny Chocolate Pie

by Robin on January 29, 2010

Has anyone noticed that I haven’t baked 1 thing in 2010? Not even ONE!

I’m in time-out. Again. I’ll remain in time-out untilĀ  my jeans will button without me passing out cold due to lack of oxygen. It’s been 3 weeks. This may take awhile.

But Valentine’s Day is coming up and I’ve been looking for something to nibble in honor of my one true love. Chocolate. I mean: The Husband.

Anyhoo, look what I found!

Chocolate-Pie

Yumalicious Figure Friendly Chocolate pie

1 cup fat free vanilla frozen yogurt (soft)

2 cups fat free milk

1 pkg sugar free instant chocolate pudding mix

1 pkg sugar free vanilla instant pudding mix

1 carton 8 oz. reduced fat whipped topping thawed divided

1 reduced fat pie crust graham cracker

Chocolate-Pie-Ingriedents

Mixing-the-pie

Whisk yogurt until smooth and soft. Gradually whisk in milk until blended. Add pudding mixes and whisk 2 minutes longer. Let stand until softly set

Fold in 1 cup whipped topping. Transfer to crust. Top with remaining whipped topping .

Refrigerate for 4 hours (or more)

Is it just me or can you hear the Hallelujah Chorus? (I can’t remember the last time I made something remotely yumalicious. It’s been a life-time. Or 3 weeks.)

Do-you-hear-the-hallelujah-

Have-some-Pie

Yumalicious

235 calories and 6 grams of fat

So the moral of this story is … even if you over-did it during November and December (or like someone I know who over-did it during January 09-December 09), you CAN have a little somin-somin for Valentine’s Week…I mean Day, Valentine’s Day.

Here it is something like 6:30 in the morning and you got me hungry for chocolate. Get behind me Satan! Then again, if it is this good, I will give into temptation and gladly sin. :)

Wow! I am so drooling! I too have some jeans that I am struggling to get buttoned…yikes. I have reduced myself to Yoplait Delights Parfait..100 calories. How does Chocolate Raspberry, lemon torte, creme caramel or triple berry creme sound? Better than nothing is what I have decided. lol

Thanks! I can have this with one of my GF pie crusts. Tell me–is this your spotless white oven? Microwave? I’m just as impressed with it as your pie! Wow!

Hi Robin. I have not been baking anything this year either, except the recipe I found for America’s Healthiest Cookie. My pants are too tight also :(
Your pie recipe sounds so good – think I’ll make this for Valentine’s Day too. Thanks for sharing your skinny, chocolately goodness!

I actually tasted this pie. Do yourself a favor and make this one. You can’t tell it’s a skinny version at all.

Jon, I’m glad you got some, I was concerned she’d eat it all before you got home :)

I had no idea that skinny and chocolate could exist in the same sentence! But you had me at “Haagen-Dazs.” Now share with us how it tastes? I too think it has breakfast written all over it!

I just want to know where that picture was taken of the pie on the mat… because if that is the inside of your refrigerator I’m going to insist you come here and make mine looks as perfectly clean and lovely!
