Normally, Nathan is the only one who gets jazzed about dessert in our house. Most typically, he will suggest we get ice cream immediately after we just ate (what I consider) the most indulgent dinner of all time but I am 100% certain he would go to Dairy Queen every single night for a Oreo Blizzard if I would let him. Me? I could take or leave dessert most days. I’d rather eat all of those chips to go along with that salsa or every single crumb of that bread basket, thank you. Team savory over team sweet. Unless we are talking about chocolate cake with chocolate frosting, never ever ever will you see me turn that down.
That was the case until (of course) the last few months of my pregnancy. I craved sweets like it was my j-o-b and did not feel my day was complete until something sweet passed through these lips. But apparently, eating ice cream every night is even less frowned upon when you are nourishing a child, so these “healthier (non) ice cream sandwiches” came to the rescue!
Here’s what you need/What you need to do:
– Cool Whip
– Graham Crackers
– Strawberries
Cut strawberries into small-ish pieces. Fold in about 2/3 of the container of Cool Whip. Pile the mixture up high between two graham crackers then stick them in the freezer on a cookie sheet for a couple of hours. I stored these in a tupperware for several days and they stayed fresh!
Do you think you can handle all of that? I hope you’re not overwhelmed.
These really could not be any easier to make, the hardest part was making them pretty enough to photograph, HA! Hope you enjoy. What is you favorite “healthier” sweet treat? Let me know in the comments!
