There are countless ways to turn a common dessert into a more healthy snack. Mousse pie is one of those treats that normally could be high in calories. However, with just a few tweaks, you can turn this into a low calorie alternative. Here is how to make a low calorie mousse pie.

From Quick Guide: Low Calorie Recipes
Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • 2 packages of fat-free sugar-free chocolate pudding mix
  • 2 cup of fat free milk
  • 1 tub of sugar-free whipped topping
  • 1 low fat/sugar free graham cracker crust
  1. Step 1

    Whip the 2 packages of chocolate pudding with the 2 cups of fat free milk until the substance begins to stiffen up.

  2. Step 2

    Fold the whipped topping into the pudding and milk mixture one spoon-full at a time. Do so gently so that the substance keeps a light texture. Reserve roughly one third of the tub of whipped topping.

  3. Step 3

    Place the pudding mixture in the graham cracker crust. Spread the mixture evenly over the crust so that the entire crust is full with the mixture.

  4. Step 4

    Spread the remaining whipped topping on top of the pie. Refrigerate for at least one hour so that the pie sets.

Tips & Warnings
  • You could substitute a chocolate crust for a more rich taste. However, this could increase the fat or calories of the dessert.
  • Add shavings of a high quality dark chocolate to the top of the dessert if you desire. Dark chocolate is a healthier alternative to milk chocolate. Once again, the dessert will have less calories without either of these.
