Nutrition Tip: Chocolate-Peanut Butter Gramwiches

In my view, the only thing better than chocolate...is chocolate AND peanut butter. this harmless combo is a great occasional treat. Sure it's not a bowl of fresh berries, but there's something to be said for necessary indulgence in moderation.

4 whole chocolate graham cracker sheets
4 teaspoons reduced fat peanut butter
1/2 cup frozen fat free whipped topping, thawed

Break each graham cracker in half (so each half is 1 square). Spread 1 teaspoon peanut butter evenly over the inside of each of 4 halves.

Spread 2 tablespoons whipped cream topping over each evenly among the insides of the 4 remaining halves. Sandwich the crackers together to form 4 sandwiches, each with a layer of peanut butter and a layer of whipped topping. transfer to an airtight plastic container and place in the freezer. Freeze for about 2 hours or up to 1 month. Serve frozen.
