Brenda Danner, a registered/certified dietitian with St. Francis Hospital and Health Centers, shared plenty of healthful holiday dishes with us last month. But we saved the best for last: chocolate. And with these three low-fat recipes, you can fulfill that sweet tooth without the guilt.

CHOCOLATE NO-BAKES

6 tablespoons unsweetened

baking cocoa

1⁄4 cup non-fat dry milk

1⁄4 cup sugar

1⁄4 cup light corn syrup

1⁄2 cup skim milk

3 tablespoons creamy peanut butter

1⁄4 cup light margarine

1 tablespoon vanilla

31⁄2 cups oats, old fashioned or quick

Mix cocoa, dry milk, sugar, corn syrup, milk, peanut butter and margarine in medium saucepan, bring to a boil & continue to boil 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in vanilla. Measure oats into medium bowl and pour hot mixture over them; mix well. Drop by spoonfuls onto wax paper and allow to cool. Transfer to container and refrigerate.
