Step 1: Freeze Your Bananas
Peel and slice ripe bananas into coins, then freeze them for at least 4 hours or overnight. This is the secret to that creamy, ice cream-like texture!
Step 2: Blend Until Smooth
Toss the frozen bananas into a high-powered blender or food processor. Add fresh mint leaves, a splash of plant-based milk, and a touch of vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
Step 3: Add the Chocolate Chunks
Once the mixture is silky and dreamy, pulse in the dark chocolate chunks. You want them evenly distributed but still chunky for that perfect bite.
Step 4: Serve or Freeze
Scoop the nice cream into bowls and enjoy immediately for a soft-serve texture. For a firmer consistency, transfer it to a loaf pan and freeze for 1-2 hours.
