Whoever said you need to go to the ice cream stand to get
ice cream stand quality sundaes? Not I!
This here is a marvelous concoction I whipped together one
night or my boyfriend and I to have as a dessert while watching a movie. We had some strawberry low fat frozen yogurt
in the freezer. Deciding to just rid ourselves of the container to be able to
buy another one, we split it. I took out
a 1 cup serving for myself, giving my boyfriend the remainder. I sliced up some fresh strawberries and a
whole banana and divided those equally among the two bowls. I then stuck two Trader Joe’s Speculoos
cookies along the edges of the bowl. And
then I got fancy… I took my beloved Cookie Butter (Trader Joe’s marvelous creation)
out of the cabinet, measured out a tablespoon and microwaved it for a few
seconds. Stirred and put it back in for
a few more seconds. When it got ooey
gooey I drizzled it over the top of one sundae and returned back to the cookie
butter to do the same to the other.
Needless to say this was heavenly. A bit sweet because Cookie Butter is sweet on
its own – then on top of frozen yogurt and naturally sweetened fruit it
definitely knocked the glycemic index up there. But it was to die for. Sure it was a 9 points plus ice cream BUT if
I went out and got a sundae from my local ice cream parlor, it would have cost
me probably upwards to 30+ points plus.
QUESTION:
Do you make sweet treat desserts at home?
