    Default OHMIGOSH!! Cacao and coconut frappe'!!

    Don't know if this is old news or not...it's new to me:) I just made the most incredible frozen dessert! Actually had it for dinner! Amazing, I might add! Thought I'd share...

    Cacao and Coconut Frappe

    2 frozen bananas (ripe)
    1/2 of the juice and all of the pulp from 1 young thai coconut
    1 Tbsp of cacao powder (raw)
    1 Tbsp of raw cacao nibs

    Whip the first three ingredients up in your vitamix or blender (I had to use the tamper to keep it moving). Pour ( more like spoon...it's thick) into large glass and stir in the cacao nibs.

    Thought I had fallen off the wagon for a minute:)..then remembered!! NO GUILT!

    Oh, That does sound really, really good. Now all I have to do is find myself a young coconut and I'll be in business. :)

    Thanks for sharing

    I found mine at whole foods. I almost made the mistake off drinking all of the water before making this. It, too, was so sweet and amazing!

    Love this idea!!

    I don't have coconut, but I think even without the coconut it'd taste fantastic! (thinking chocolate covered bananas ... yum!!) Might try it for an evening snack/dessert later :-)
