Every week throughout the Summer, I will be revealing a new flavour of delicious 'icecream', using a frozen banana base to create an array of delicious, low-fat and exciting recipes.
***
I've now developed the idea even further by introducing a range of
'Slimmerbocker Glories'.
These are large, layered desserts served in tall glasses and are mouth-wateringly fabulous.
This week, my chosen flavour is a
Cherry-Chocolate Slimmerbocker Glory.
If you like Black Forest Gateau, you'll love this...
It's made up of layers of Chocolate mini roll, rich, dark chocolate 'ice cream', blitzed frozen cherries, sweet cherry yoghurt, fresh chopped cherries and topped with grated chocolate. The final flourish is a big juicy cherry on top!
.
It is completely huge, delicious, very filling...and...
This dessert will only set you back 5pp/approx.350kcal per portion!

2 teaspoons cocoa powder
2 WeightWatchers Chocolate mini rolls
160g frozen cherries

Make a batch of banana 'ice cream' base.
Pop it into a mixing bowl and store in the freezer while you prepare the other elements of the dessert.
Rinse out the bowl and blade from the food processor, then blitz the frozen cherries to the 'cous-cous'or granular stage.
Slice up each mini roll. Stone the fresh cherries and chop them into chunky pieces. Reserve 2 big fat juicy cherries on their stalks for the final garnish.
Grate the chocolate.

Prepare 2 glasses.
(I don't have any sundae-style dishes, so I just use tall drinking glasses).
Take the chocolate 'ice cream' mixture out of the freezer.
Assemble the dessert in this order...

Hi all your ice cream sundaes look lovely!
I was wondering if it's possible to use something else as the base ingredient, as my fiance unfortunately hates bananas.
Thanks
I have to say that many people have written to me saying that even though they hate banana, once flavoured with chocolate etc, it's hard to tell-maybe he could try it? x Otherwise, you could just use the frozen fruits such as mango, cherry, strawberries etc and make yours more sorbet-based.x
