    List of Ingredients




    1/2 cup plus 2 Tablespoons unbleached flour
    1/2 cup quick-cooking oats
    1 cup sugar
    1/2 cup cocoa powder
    1/8 teaspoon baking powder
    1/4 cup plus 2 Tablespoons plain nonfat yogurt
    2 Tablespoons water
    4 egg whites
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1/3 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
    5 cups nonfat vanilla or mint ice cream

    Glaze
    1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
    2 drops peppermint extract
    1 drop green food coloring
    2 teaspoon skim milk

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.

    In a medium-sized bowl, combine the flour, oats, sugar, cocoa and baking powder. Stir to mix well. Stir in the yogurt, water, egg whites and vanilla extract. Fold in nuts if desired.

    Coat a 9-inch round pan with nonstick cooking spray. Spread the batter evenly in the pan and bake for 25 minutes or just until the edges are firm and the center is almost set. Be careful not to overbake. Cool to room temperature.

    To make the glaze, combine the confectioners' sugar, peppermint extract and food coloring in a small bowl. Stir in the milk.

    If using a microwave oven, place the glaze in a microwave-safe dish, and microwave uncovered on high power for 15 seconds, or until runny.

    If using a conventional stove top, transfer the glaze to a small saucepan and place over low heat until runny.

    Drizzle the glaze back and forth over the cooled pie. Set aside for a few minutes to allow the glaze to set.

    Cut the pie into wedges. Transfer the wedges to individual serving dishes, top each piece with 1/2 cup of nonfat ice cream and serve immediately.

    Yield: 10 servings
