Sinfully rich, indulgently dark, and secretly healthy chocolate ice cream!

This no-churn, creamy chocolate nice cream has a secret:
A full 1/3 cup of cocoa is packed into the recipe, for the ultimate richness. It’s the perfect healthy frozen treat for any dark chocolate lover.
Every time I make this chocolatey nice cream, I can’t stop eating it from the blender!

The new-and-improved recipe is adapted from the chocolate version of my original Banana Ice Cream Recipe, and it uses only natural ingredients, without any additional sweeteners.

If you?re not a dark chocolate fan, you can of course add a little stevia or pure maple syrup or your favorite sweetener if you wish. But it is not required for the recipe, especially if you start with ripened bananas, often referred to as “nature’s candy” because of their ability to sweeten recipes naturally without having to add extra sugar. For those of you who don’t want a banana flavor, the extra cocoa added in this recipe does a great job masking the banana, and opting to use the nut butter (or your favorite nut-free alternative) masks it even more. I honestly could not taste any banana at all.
Then again, I love bananas so I might not be the best person to ask!

Once blended, I threw caution to the wind and increased the chocolate flavor even more by adding my newest obsession ? Chocolate Brownie Larabar Bites.
I am so in love with these things, along with their Mint Chocolate Truffle flavor...
