Ninety percent of the time I choose savory over sweet food. Though there’s that 10%!  And when I have that craving for something sweet, I enjoy indulging in a creamy chocolaty dessert. When the weather is sizzling hot, I usually don’t want to add to the heat of the day by baking a pie.

So meet “frozen chocolate cream pie martini!” It’s a summertime experiment of mine inspired by chocolate cream pie. It’s a cross between a pie, milkshake, and martini. Yes, there’s vodka lurking in it! Multiply the recipe as needed. Cheers!

Instructions

1. Add the frozen dessert, plant-based milk, and vodka to a blender. Cover and puree.
2. Pour into a sturdy martini or other cocktail glass (not into crystal) and freeze at least 4 hours (or up to 24 hours in advance).
3. When the beverage is frozen solid, pour the chocolate graham crumbs onto a small shallow dish. Rub the orange wedge around the edge of the martini glass. Dip the edge into the crumbs until the rim is well coated. (Note: Only a portion of the graham crumbs will adhere to the glass.)
4. In a small bowl, whisk together the plant-based yogurt, nectar, and vanilla until well combined. Dollop onto the frozen beverage, top with a cherry, and enjoy with a small spoon.

Jackie’s Culinary Nutrition Tips!

• Focus on the filling, rather than the crust or topping, since that’s actually the main feature of a pie
• Use a perfectly portioned eating/drinking vessel, like a sturdy martini glass, to add whimsy while keeping serving size just right
• Plain, unsweetened plant-based Greek-style yogurt whipped with coconut nectar or agave nectar and pure vanilla extract creates a delightfully luscious topping in lieu of whipped cream
