CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM WITH TOASTED ALMONDS

Here’s a secret: A frozen banana, slightly blended, has the same consistency as ice cream. It’s true! Now enjoy a smooth and creamy dessert that your body will thank you for.

1 frozen banana (make sure your banana is frozen at the exact ripeness that you like to eat it)

2 teaspoons natural almond butter

2 teaspoons cocoa powder

1-3 tablespoons almond milk, such as Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Breeze™*

1 teaspoon sliced almonds, toasted sweetener, to taste

In a food processor or blender, combine banana, almond butter, and cocoa powder. Process with 3-4 pulses. Add almond milk, a tablespoon at a time, and process until mixture clumps up and resembles ice cream. Add sweetener as needed. Spoon mixture into a cup and top with toasted almonds. Makes a smooth and creamy treat that tastes just like ice cream!
