Diabetic Recipe of the Week: Frozen Peanut Butter Pie
Makes: 10 servings
Serving Size: 1/10 of pie
Preparation Time: 16 minutes
Freezing Time: 6 hours
Ingredients
1 quart fat-free vanilla ice cream, softened
1/4 cup crunchy natural peanut butter
1 9 inch lower-fat graham cracker crust
1/4 cup chopped, roasted, unsalted peanuts
1/4 cup sugar free chocolate syrup
Preparation
1. In a mixing bowl, use an electric mixer at medium-low speed to combine the softened ice cream and peanut butter.
