This chocolate peanut butter nice cream is full of all the yummy things. Rich, dark chocolate, creamy coconut milk, smooth peanut butter, and most importantly, frozen bananas! What do you end up with? The ultimate thick and velvety dessert.
Equipment
- High speed blender or food processor
- Loaf pan
- Ice cream scoop
Ingredients
- 4 very ripe* bananas peeled & frozen ($0.64)
- 3 tbsp cacao powder ($0.47)
- 3 tbsp natural peanut butter ( $0.33)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract ($0.21)
- 4 tbsp full-fat coconut milk ($0.14)
- A pinch of sea salt, if using unsalted pb ($0.01)
Toppings optional
- Chopped peanuts
- Toasted coconut flakes
- Peanut butter swirls
- Dark chocolate chunks or chips
Instructions
- To begin, peel, chop, and freeze bananas overnight, or until fully frozen. When the bananas are ready, add 4 tbsp of coconut milk to a high-speed blender or food processor. Then add in the bananas, vanilla, peanut butter, cacao powder, and salt.
- Blend on medium-high until you achieve a smooth, soft-serve consistency, about 2-5 minutes. You may have to stop and scrape down the sides a few times. If it isn't blending at all, add in the rest of the coconut milk 1 tbsp at a time.
- You can serve the nice cream at this point for a soft-serve texture. Top with garnishes of your liking (chopped peanuts, chocolate chunks, peanut butter drizzle, or toasted coconut flakes).
- For a more firm consistency, transfer nice cream to a freezer-safe loaf pan or container. Drizzle more peanut butter over top and swirl in with a knife. Cover nice cream and freeze it for approximately 1-2 hours before eating.
- When you're ready to serve, scoop nice cream into dishes and garnish with chopped peanuts, toasted coconut flakes, and chocolate chunks!
Notes
- *Your bananas should be very spotty before you freeze them.
