Chocolate Cherry Ice Cream

When this recipe came across my radar screen (thanks, food.com), I knew we would be trying it. As it turns out, I can make a batch of this frozen treat and it's gone the same night. In our defence, the recipe does say it serves 1 - 2 snacky folks, but we have always doubled this recipe and been left wishing we had more.

Try it and let us know what you think! Feedback is good.

Homemade Chocolate Cherry Ice Cream

                 

1/2 cup frozen cherries

1 tablespoon almond butter

1/2 tablespoon honey                      

1 tablespoon cocoa or 1 tablespoon carob powder

1 dash sea salt

1 teaspoon vanilla 

1 banana, frozen and cut     

 

 

Peel and chop the banana, then freeze solid.

 

Process all ingredients in a blender or food processor until combined into a smooth consistency, similar to soft-serve ice cream.

 

Either enjoy right away or allow to set in freezer until firm. You won't believe it until you've tried it for yourself.
