Improv Choco-Strawberry Shortcake






















I picked up some beautiful strawberries at the farmer's market this week, and the first thing I thought of was Strawberry Shortcake. I didn't have any biscuits, though, and didn't feel like making some. So, I improvised once again, using a yum-o-licious Double Chocolate VitaTop and some whipped cream.

This recipe is not only super fast and easy; it's also super healthy. VitaTops are nutritional powerhouses, for only 100 calories each. With the strawberries and the non-fat, no-sugar-added whipped cream, it's an innocent indulgence. :)

Ingredients
  • 1 Double Chocolate VitaTop
  • Sliced strawberries to taste
  • Whole Foods brand non-fat, no-sugar-added whipped cream to taste

Directions
  • If frozen, warm VitaTop in microwave for 20 seconds.
  • Slice VitaTop in half.
  • Cover bottom half of VitaTop with sliced strawberries.
  • Spritz some whipped cream on top of the strawberries.
  • Cover with top half of VitaTop.
  • Spritz with more whipped cream.
  • Add a few bits of crystallized ginger, if desired.
