Hi everyone,
 
When I have guests over for dinner, I think it's festive to serve some kind of dessert. This can be tricky, though, because the daily calorie allowance that's healthy for my body doesn't leave much room for decadent sweets. I often serve mixed berries with a little dark chocolate, which is always a hit. But it's fun to have options, especially when it's something fun and unexpected to surprise your (grown-up) guests with!
 
Here's one idea, inspired by Martha Stewart. I can't tell you exactly how many calories are in this, so try it at our own risk—but it's a whole lot lighter than a slice of cheesecake! Just cut cantaloupe or watermelon into fun shapes using small cookie cutters, soak the fruit in a margarita (or a mojito!) for 15 minutes, pop the fruit on a wooden stick, and freeze it for at least 1 hour for a yummy adult treat! A fancy, modern jell-o shot, if you will. Ha.
 
Do you have any ideas for fun and light sweet treats for the end of a dinner party? Please share them here!
