Memaw's Chocolate Frozen Pie


memaw's chocolate frozen pie
(we anderson girls like to call this a "lowfat" dessert)

1 pkg cream cheese or neufchatel (lower in fat)
1/2 c. sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
combine the above ingredients in a medium mixing bowl.
1/3 c. cocoa
1/2 c. milk
combine the two ingredients.
then add to the cream cheese mixture.

8 oz. cool whip, light **
1 c. (or so) semi sweet chocolate chips
stir into the cocoa-cream cheese mixture.
pour into a chocolate cookie crust.* and freeze.

*You will have extra mixture, put the extra into a freezer- friendly container and
freeze.

** Ashley makes this dessert but she replaces the Cool Whip with homemade whipped cream. A bit more caloric, but in the long run much more healthy than the HFCS and hydrogenated coconut oil found in Cool Whip.
