Steps:
- Mash the strawberries until a puree is achieved (warming them for a few seconds in the microwave, if needed, will help).
- In a small dish, mix the puree with the Cool Whip until completely blended.
- For a sweeter flavor (optional), mix in half or all of a no-calorie sweetener packet. Place mixture in the freezer until just frozen (do not over-freeze, or it will be hard to scoop).
- Peel the banana, and then cut it in half lengthwise. Place halves in a long dessert dish with the flat sides facing inwards.
- Scoop the frozen strawberry/Cool Whip mixture into the center of the banana "boat".
- Place the chocolate ice cream on one side of the strawberry scoop and the vanilla ice cream on the other side.
- Drizzle chocolate syrup over the entire banana split, and then squirt the Reddi-wip over the whole dessert as well. Now dig in!
