People with diabetics are often faced with the dilemma of whether or not to reach for that extensively spread dessert bar. But what most people don’t know is that diabetes does not mean that you cannot eat desserts ever again. Several easy and delicious recipes will satiate your sweet tooth and not make your blood sugar levels spike. So, to put desserts back on the menu for you, here’s a list of some no-cook sweet treats for diabetics.

1. Butter, almond, and cocoa fondue
This is one of the most delicious no-cook sweet treats for diabetics. Not only is it lip-smacking, but it is also filled with proteins. This dessert, cooked in almond butter, will give your body the necessary supply of proteins, and coconut oil will add flavor and some fat to it. The recipe uses cocoa powder instead of sugar which means it has lesser calories and fats than your regular chocolate bar. If you like to make your dessert extra chocolatey, you also have the liberty to add some cocoa powder without any guilt.

To make this recipe, you will need almond butter about ¼ cup, cocoa powder, one tablespoon, 1 tablespoon of melted coconut oil, maple syrup one and a half teaspoons, ¼ cup water, and some sea salt. You will also need some chopped fruits, pretzels, or crackers for dipping. To prepare this dessert, mix cocoa powder, almond butter, coconut oil, and maple syrup with water in a bowl. The dessert is ready for immediate consumption, or you can leave it in the refrigerator overnight to turn it into a creamy dip. Garnish it with sea salt and other toppings of your choice.

2. Pumpkin cheesecake mousse
The dessert can be another choice for diabetics to satiate their sweet cravings. This dessert gets its sweet taste from pumpkin, which makes it extremely safe for diabetes patients. Also, the cheese used in the recipe is made from whole milk. The pumpkin cheesecake mousse, garnished with cinnamon and nutmeg, is a delicious and rich dessert option for diabetics. To make this, you will need pumpkin puree ¾ cup, ricotta cheese ¾ cup, maple syrup about one and a half tablespoons, cinnamon and vanilla extract both ½ teaspoon, just a pinch of nutmeg and salt, Greek yogurt ¼ cup, and chopped almonds two tablespoons for garnishing. Except for yogurt and almonds, whip all the ingredients together. Let the mixture refrigerate for 30 minutes at least. Garnish it with yogurt, chopped almonds, and some sprinkled nutmeg.

3. Chia seeds and chocolate smoothie
