Banana split ice cream pie (Diabetic)

Ingredients:

1 six-ounce commercial graham cracker crumb pie crust
1 banana (about 6 inches), sliced
2 cups reduced-fat, no-sugar-added vanilla ice cream, softened
2 cups reduced-fat, no-sugar-added chocolate ice cream
1/4 cup strawberry 100% fruit spread
1/2 cup fat-free whipped topping
8 maraschino cherries with stems, well-drained
3 tablespoons lite chocolate syrup (such as Hershey�s)

Method:

Cover the bottom of the pie crust with banana slices. Spread softened vanilla ice cream over the banana slices, pressing it into spaces between bananas, making a smooth layer. Cover and freeze, about 1 hour, or until ice cream is firm. Soften chocolate ice cream 20�30 seconds in the microwave, or by allowing it to sit at room temperature 10�15 minutes. Remove pie from the freezer and cover vanilla ice cream completely with a layer of chocolate ice cream, smoothing it with a dull knife. Cover and return to the freezer until the ice cream is again hardened, about 1 hour. Before serving,
allow pie to soften slightly at room temperature for 10�15 minutes and warm the fruit spread. To serve, cut pie into 8 slices and put on serving plates. Drizzle each piece with warm strawberry fruit spread. Top each with a dollop of whipped topping and a maraschino cherry, then drizzle lightly with chocolate syrup. Serve immediately.
