Double Chocolate Banana Nice Cream Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the frozen bananas, cocoa powder, almond butter and coconut milk in a high-speed blender. Blend on high speed; use the tamper to push down on the ingredients so they blend evenly. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy, about 1 minute. Stop the blender, add the chocolate chips and salt. Blend again until combined.
• Serve immediately, while it's soft like soft-serve ice cream, or transfer it to a freezer-safe container and freeze until firmer and easy to scoop, about 2 hours. Can be frozen up to 1 month.

Steps:

• For the cookie dough: Process the yogurt, tahini and vanilla in a food processor until combined. Add the brown sugar and process until combined, scraping the sides with a rubber spatula as needed.
• Microwave the flour in a small microwave-safe bowl for 1 minute. Remove and stir well. Microwave for an additional minute or until the temperature reaches 180 degrees F. Sift into a small bowl, then whisk in the salt (see Cook's Note). Add the mixture to the food processor and pulse until just combined, scraping the sides with a rubber spatula as needed, about 6 pulses. Add the chocolate chips and pulse until they are incorporated, about 5 pulses. Transfer to a small bowl.
• Roll the dough into 1/4 teaspoon cookie dough balls (about 60 dough balls), lightly flouring your hands if the dough is too sticky. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• For the nice cream base: Put the bananas, cocoa powder, 2 tablespoons tahini and salt in a food processor and process until smooth. Taste and add up to 1 tablespoon more tahini and season with more salt if necessary. Transfer to a large bowl and stir in the cookie dough balls. Transfer to an airtight container and freeze for at least 5 hours, stirring every 1 hour 30 minutes to distribute the cookie dough evenly.
