Pleasure first, restraint second
We are not interested in 'healthy' desserts that taste like punishment. The recipes in this category are built around real ingredients (good chocolate, fresh fruit, real olive oil), are usually a touch less sweet than the supermarket equivalent, and rely on flavor rather than sugar overload.
Some are make-ahead (chia pudding sets overnight in the fridge), others are bakes that improve the next day (the olive oil cake is famous in our house for being better on day two). All of them are recipes you'll feel good about serving.
