Ingredients:
4 ripe bananas
2 C cashews
6 T nonalkanized cocoa powder
2 tsp vanilla
Directions:
Blend until smooth.*
Pour into crust.
Chill 2 hours.
*If you don't have a vitamix, puree the bananas first, add cocoa, vanilla and blend. Add cashews...and blend, blend, blend.
I was a bit worried it wouldn't set up.....as I didn't freeze it...but it DID. Now - it's not a Chocolate Cream Pie....but it's sweet, sugar-free, oil-free, dairy-free....and loaded with NUTRITION.
Zander wouldn't try it.
Nolan, Arielle and Stacia had seconds - and I didn't mind if they did. LOL
Michael said it was, "alright but not Chocolate Cream Pie." He suggested some whipped cream would make it much better....and it would.
I thought it was wonderful - rich - I couldn't finish it. Putting whipped cream on it WOULD be yummy - but would negate the nutritional value of it - I'd have to limit slices if they add processed sugar and dairy. LOL
This will be Arielle and my Thanksgiving Dessert. ::grin::

Your speech should always be gracious, {as though} seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you should answer each person.
