RECIPE BY Cooking Light

Substitute strong brewed coffee for the espresso, or use instant coffee/espresso granules to make the coffee. A vegetable peeler is a great tool to make chocolate curls from a bar of chocolate.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups vanilla low-fat ice cream
  • 2 medium bananas, sliced
  • 1/2 cup hot brewed espresso
  • 2 tablespoons chopped, dry-roasted peanuts
  • 2 tablespoons chocolate curls (about 1/2 ounce)

Wrong combination

This just doesn't work. Espresso and chocolate together--great. Bananas, peanuts and chocolate--lovely. But all together--just wrong. I'd pick one or the other to flavor my dessert but not both!
