Instructions
To get a creamy consistency, I think you'll need a high powered blender. I used my VitaMix.
Place all the ingredients into the blender and process until smooth and creamy. (I needed to use my plunger at first to get everything to combine.)
If you have a less powerful blender, you may need to add a little more liquid for this recipe to work.
