12 cashews
1 cup frozen black cherries

In a high powered blender, combine all ingredients – except raspberries – and blend. Sprinkle raspberries on top and serve immediately.
Recipe: Chocolate cherry ice cream
We love this dessert! Great with banana or berries instead of cherries too.
Serves 2
INGREDIENTS:
1/2 cup vanilla soy, hemp, or almond milk
1 tablespoon natural cocoa powder
4 dates, pitted
1 1/2 cups dark sweet frozen cherries
[We added 1/2 cup of ice for extra creamy goodness]
DIRECTIONS:
Blend all ingredients in a high-powered blender until smooth and creamy. If using a regular blender, add only half the cherries and blend until smooth, then add the remaining cherries and continue to blend.
Variation: Use berries or banana instead of cherries. Freeze ripe bananas at least 24 hours in advance. To freeze, peel, cut into thirds, and wrap tightly in plastic wrap.
