I Scream, You Scream



Ultimate Ice Cream (it's vegan, too, but you can't tell...I promise!)

I had a list of a couple of things that I wanted to blog about tonight but after trying this recipe, I had to move this to the top of the list!

This is just about the easiest dessert I have ever made and the greatest thing is that it can be made with ingredients that most people already have in their homes.  I found the original recipe on Pinterest (it was from this site:  http://www.neverhomemaker.com/2010/06/ultimate-vegan-ice-cream.html) so you can check it out there but I made one minor adjustment and added some vanilla.  It is A-MAZING!

Ingredients:
2 Bananas, chopped in 'coins' and frozen
1 Handful Chocolate Chips
2 Tablespoons Peanut Butter
1 Teaspoon Vanilla

THAT IS IT!  Here's what you do:
1.  Put the frozen banana coins in a blender or food processor (I used my mini Cuisinart that I blogged about a few months ago and it worked perfectly); chop into pea sized or smaller bits
2.  Add a handful of chocolate chips, 2 tbsp. peanut butter and 1 tsp. vanilla
3.  Continue to blend until smooth, airy and creamy; add more peanut butter as needed

This is one of the most delicious homemade desserts I have ever made and I have done quite a bit of baking over the years!  It is ridiculously easy and so good for you.  My kids and husband devoured this healthy treat which made me, and them, very happy!
