Easy VEGAN Chocolate “Ice Cream” (without an ice cream maker)

Posted on August 7, 2012 by vegobsession chick

This is the kind of ice cream we have in our house. All natural, hormone-free, low sugar, and healthy!

I have posted easy “ice cream” recipes in the past, but I just wanted to remind you again how awesome and delicious this stuff is! It is simple and quick! It takes me 5 to 10 minutes to make this stuff.

It is the best guilt-free chocolate “ice cream”! Made from fruits, cacao,and peanut butter…and a little bit of almond extract.

It is creamy, delicious, and so satisfying!

Ingredients:

-frozen bananas (3 or 4)
-frozen blueberries (about 1 cup)
-1 tsp almond extract
-pitted dates (5)
-1/3 cup of peanut butter
-2 tablespoons of cacao powder
-a few tablespoons of cacao nibs or vegan chocolate chips (optional)

Note: if you find that it is too thick, just add a bit more frozen fruit. If you want to make it sweeter, you can add more dates, stevia, or agave. Adjust to your preference….

Directions:
1. throw everything in the VITAMIX or high-powered blender.
2. Blend and serve
3. Top it off with more fruit, shredded coconuts, hemp seeds, vegan cookies, crushed peanuts, etc.

I usually make a couple of batches to freeze. Before I serve, I let it thaw for about 5 to 10 minutes.

Enjoy!
