The New Brownie-esque Sundae

Did I ever mention I LOVE chocolate? Oh wait, I think I have! :)

I am in love with Vitatops.  These things are amazingly delicious and surprisingly pretty nutritious.  I get the chocolate variety and it really bursts with flavor.  I have always been a Hungry Girl follower and she included these in her recipes a lot but I always overlooked it thinking they would be gross.  Oh no, they are far from gross. They look like the top of a muffin and are slap-your-mom good.  Great chocolate flavor, no weird aftertaste and tons of fiber.

There are a million ways to do a vitatop but here is my favorite.

1 vitatop (whatever flavor your prefer, I love chocolate)
1/2 c. lowfat vanilla ice cream.

Heat the vitatop for 18 seconds in the microwave and place the ice cream on top.  Yep it's that easy and in less than 30 seconds you have a brownie-esque sundae for around 200 calories.

I will mention these things don't run cheap. A pack of 4 runs about $4.99. I have only seen them in Kroger around here. Obviously at this price it's not an everyday treat but once or twice a week will justify the calories saved:)
