Strawberries, Blossoms......& Chocolate!

I'm getting closer.......yippee!!!!

Since I have been stitching strawberries and seeing pink. I decided tonight I would make a frozen treat for the guys for dessert.  This recipe is a big hit at our home.  It is light, fluffy and refreshing. 


I hope you will try it, it takes about 5 minutes, yes, that's only 5 minutes to make!!!  Can't go wrong with that now can ya?  The recipe calls for chocolate syrup drizzled over the top, but sometimes I like to add a little bit of sliced strawberries on top, also.  Makes for a perfect finishing touch, not to mention taste.

  • 1 chocolate crumb crust (9 inches)
  • Chocolate syrup, optional

Directions

It's so good to feel close to your finish. Congrats to being almost there. Thanks for the recipe. Looks like it may have gotten eaten before you had a chance to take a pic-LOL. I'll be at the grocery store tomorrow so I'll get the ingredients and give it a try.

What a cute design. I don't think I've ever seen it before, but it's BB so it has to be fabulous right? You have been so busy blogging. Sorry I've missed a lot of your posts! Life should be better soon, as I've finally got a plan for my parents gift, and now I just need to get it done! Hope you had fun shopping on Friday. We missed SB, they close at 5:00. I thought they would be open until 6:00, and we got there at 5:30. Now another trip is in store sometime!
Your dessert sounds yummy. I'll have to try it sometime.
Hugs to you.
