🍦 Double Chocolate Chunky Monkey Ice Cream Recipe
Ingredients (2-4 servings)
- 3 bananas (sliced and frozen)
- ⅓ cup nut milk (I used coconut milk)
- 2 tbsps raw cacao powder
- 2 oz (55g) dark chocolate (or raw cacao nibs), chopped into small pieces
Directions
- Peel, slice, and freeze bananas. Cool coconut milk in the fridge.
- When the bananas are frozen, make sure you have all other ingredients ready.
- Put the frozen bananas in a high-speed blender or food processor.
- Add nut milk of your choice. Using a spatula, blend mixture until it resembles soft serve ice cream. If using a food processor, stop and scrape down the sides if necessary.
- Then add cacao powder blend until well incorporated.
- Stir in chopped chocolate chips and spoon into small bowls. Or freeze the ice cream for at least 20-30 minutes if you prefer a harder consistency. We like soft serve!
- Optional: top with superfoods such as chopped nuts, goji berries, mulberries, or shredded coconut if you like.
Enjoy!!!
