Ice cream is always easy to portion out, as are any other frozen
desserts. Cookies can be kept in the freezer, too, either baked or
unbaked. Many cakes and brownies freeze well, but you need to
experiment a bit with your favorite recipes to see which do best.

Most fresh or frozen fruit you have in the house can be easily
sweetened, if needed, and fancied up with cream, creme fraiche, or
whipped cream. Fresh fruit is always lovely on its own, too.

If you are looking for things that are a bit less sweet, try some fine
cheese and a small piece of fruit, such as apple slices or some
grapes.

Sometimes adding some sugar (or sweetener) to a cup of rich coffee,
along with a spoon of unsweetened cocoa and some milk or cream, will
provide just enough sweetness to calm the munchies, without causing
too much damage. Foam the milk, if you like, and sprinkle the cup with
more cocoa or cinnamon.
