ngredients:
- 3 ripe bananas, peeled, sliced, and frozen
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2-3 tablespoons milk (dairy or plant-based)
- Optional toppings: sliced bananas, chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or shredded coconut
Instructions:
- Place the frozen banana slices in a blender or food processor.
- Add cocoa powder and vanilla extract to the frozen bananas.
- Start blending the mixture. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides of the blender or food processor occasionally to ensure everything is well combined.
- As the mixture blends, add milk gradually until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency. Be careful not to add too much liquid, as you want the nice cream to be thick.
- Continue blending until the nice cream reaches a smooth, ice cream-like texture.
- Taste and adjust the sweetness if needed. If you prefer a sweeter nice cream, you can add a small amount of honey, maple syrup, or any sweetener of your choice.
- Once the nice cream reaches the desired consistency, transfer it to a bowl.
- Serve immediately as a soft-serve treat or transfer it to a container and freeze for a couple of hours for a firmer texture.
- Before serving, you can sprinkle your favorite toppings such as sliced bananas, chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or shredded coconut.
