Equipment
- powder blender or food processor (DO NOT use regular blenders - regular blender motors may not handle creaming frozen bananas)
Ingredients
- 4 large ripe bananas peeled and frozen
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon white granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoon peanut butter
Instructions
- Chop your frozen bananas into 1-2" sized pieces. This will allow the powder blender or food processor to easily break down the banana.
- Put your 4 frozen cut bananas, 2 tablespoon of peanut butter, and 1/4 cup of cocoa powder into your powder blender or food processor.
- Blend until mixture is in a cream texture. Remember to stop the powder blender or food processor when frozen bananas get stuck. Be safe and make sure powder blender or food processor has fully stopped or is unplugged, and mix up the mixture using a spoon or spatula to unclog the areas that are stuck to continue to blend as needed. Add in 1 tablespoon of sugar once mixture is in an ice cream texture and blend to mix the sugar into ice cream well.
- Your ice cream is now ready to be eaten or you can pour your ice cream mixture into an ice cream container and freeze.If you do not have an ice cream container, any airtight container will work. Some plastic containers will get brittle in the freezer so check to make sure it is freezer safe.
- OPTIONAL: You can add chocolate syrup to your chocolate ice cream or any other toppings you desire. I used Ghirardelli chocolate premium sauce to drizzle over my ice cream.
