What can beat ice cream sandwiched in the best cookies?
The answer is, a lighter ice cream sandwich, lower in calories but just every bite as delicious!
A treat like this is the best way to engage young children in learning how to eat healthier by trying new combinations.
Well, I've fooled you in the title as I would use frozen Greek yogurt to replace ice cream, but I can guarantee it's every bit as gratifying!
Ingredients:
- Frozen Greek yogurt - your pick of flavor.
- Ginger Snaps, Graham crackers, or thin wafers or cookies like Pepperidge Genevas for extra nuttiness
- Sliced fruits, banas, strawberries, cherries, kiwis, raspberries, even pomegranates, papaya dices, mango dices, you name it.
- Roasted and chopped nuts, such as walnuts, pecans, pistachios, cashews, almonds
- Dark Chocolate nibs chopped up in the same size of chopped nuts
Directions:
- It's an open buffet. You are the boss of your crackers or cookies. Layer your pick with fruits and frozen Greek yogurt, sandwich up and roll the side in chopped nuts, chocolate nibs.
- I think that's good enough but if you desire, you can drizzle chocolate syrup over the top.
- If you can wait, place on flatware and freeze for 20-30 min to firm up.
- Dig in.
