We used Colorado cherries to make our star spangled banner sparkle!
Makes: 4 banana splits
Ingredients:
4 bananas sliced in half or quarters
To make: Once “nice” cream below is ready to serve, cut one banana in half and place in a banana split style container. Place one slice on the right side of the container and the other on the left. Do this for all 4 bananas.
For Red:
1 banana sliced
1 ½ cups Colorado Cherries – deseeded and sliced in half OR use frozen sweet cherries.
¼ cup canned coconut cream
To make: Blend all ingredients in a food processor and blend thoroughly. Place in a gallon size baggie and place in the freezer. Freeze overnight or for at least several hours.
Once frozen, Place ingredients from the bag into a food processor again. Blend until you can scoop out 1 scoop and place in the middle of the banana split container. Rince out the food processor so that you can make the next color.
For White:
1 banana sliced
¼ cup canned coconut cream
Several drops of vanilla extract
To make: Blend all ingredients in a food processor and blend thoroughly. Place in a gallon size baggie and place in the freezer. Freeze overnight or for at least several hours.
