Ingredients
  

Ice Cream
  • 4 bananas, peeled, cut into chunks, and frozen
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
  • a few tablespoons of water
  • 1 chocolate bar, chopped into small pieces
Topping
  • peanut butter and sea salt for topping

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Allow the frozen banana pieces to soften slightly at room temperature or in the microwave. Keep them frozen inside while softening the exterior so they are easier to process without becoming too soft.
  2. Process the bananas in a food processor until smooth. If using a blender, stir occasionally as needed to help the frozen mixture move through the blades.
  3. Mix the cocoa with the water to create a smooth paste, then add it to the banana mixture and process again until fully combined.
  4. Fold in the chopped chocolate pieces. Serve the ice cream topped with peanut butter and sea salt.
