Ingredients

  • 2 Bananas frozen
  • 5-6 Strawberries frozen and hulled
  • 3 tbs. heavy cream
  • 8 tbs. honey or to taste, divided
  • 4 tbs. Coconut Oil
  • 4 tbs. Cacao Powder / or melt chocolate chips
  • Toppings: Crushed peanuts or sprinkles

Instructions

  • Cut bananas and hull strawberries.
  • Freeze for at least 3 hours (I left them in overnight)
  • Blend bananas, strawberries, heavy cream, and honey until the mixture has a soft serve consistency.
  • Using an ice cream scooper, form ice cream into balls (remember to work quickly as it will melt). Place on a baking sheet and return back to the freezer
  • In a bowl, add coconut oil. Place in microwave for 10-12 seconds. It should not be in liquid form but just melted enough to mix with the cacao.
  • Mix cacao and coconut oil together and add honey. For a sweeter variety, add more honey until you reach your desired sweetness. Allow cacao mixture to cool a bit.
  • Dip ice cream ball into cacao mixture, then in peanuts. You can also sprinkle peanuts instead of rolling it in it.
  • Freeze until ready to eat
  • Remove from freezer and allow it to melt a bit before eating
