Mascarpone is a fresh Italian cheese that rivals butter in sat fat. We replace nearly all of it with 1/3-less-fat cream cheese, saving 160 calories and 10g sat fat per serving.

Sweetened with a touch of sugar, we fold these light and fluffy fat-free whites into our custard and save 7g of sat fat per serving over heavy whipped cream.

We save 23 calories per serving with this full-flavored coffee liqueur. It packs a bittersweet punch that replaces sweet wine and extra sugar in the creamy custard.
