This Chocolate Banana Nice Cream is a creamy, dairy-free frozen dessert made with just two simple ingredients: bananas and cocoa powder. It’s an easy, healthy alternative to traditional ice cream, and it’s perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth without any added sugar or extra points. The frozen bananas give it the perfect creamy texture, while the cocoa adds a rich chocolate flavor. You can enjoy this guilt-free treat on a hot day or whenever you need something sweet!
Ingredients:
- 2 ripe bananas (peeled and frozen)
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- 1 tablespoon almond milk (or any milk of choice, adjust for texture)
- Sweetener to taste (optional, like Stevia or honey)
Instructions:
- Peel the bananas and cut them into small chunks. Place the banana chunks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for at least 2 hours or overnight.
- Once the bananas are frozen, add them to a food processor or high-powered blender.
- Add the unsweetened cocoa powder, vanilla extract (if using), and a splash of almond milk.
- Blend until smooth and creamy. You may need to scrape down the sides of the processor or blender a few times to help it come together.
- Taste the mixture and add sweetener if desired, blending again to incorporate.
- Once the “nice cream” is smooth and creamy, serve immediately for a soft-serve consistency, or transfer to a container and freeze for about 1 hour for a firmer texture.
- Serve in bowls and enjoy immediately!
