Banana Split Pie


Ingredients:
3 c. light vanilla ice cream
1 1/2 c. sliced strawberries
2 c. fat-free whipped topping, thawed from frozen
1 (60 calorie) sugar-free chocolate pudding snack
2 bananas, sliced
2 Tbsp. light chocolate syrup
1 Tbsp. crushed dry-roasted peanuts
8 maraschino cherries


Directions:
Set out all of your ingredients so your ice cream doesn't melt too much once you start assembling.


Once slightly softened, scoop ice cream into a large pie pan and spread into an even layer along the bottom. Evenly place strawberry slices flat over ice cream, pressing down lightly so they adhere.


Put whipped topping in a bowl.  Add pudding and mix thoroughly.  Spread pudding/topping mixture into a smooth layer over strawberries.  Evenly place banana slices flat over this layer, and drizzle with chocolate syrup.  Sprinkle with nuts and evenly place the cherries on top of the pie.  Freeze for about 4 hours (or overnight), until completely firm.


Allow the pie to sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before slicing. Cut into 8 slices and enjoy.
