Hot Fudge Sauce

Banana 'Nice' Cream

Prep time    10 minutes  

Cook time   0 minutes    

Yield               2-3 servings    

🌱 Ingredients

• 2 medium ripe bananas, peeled, sliced and frozen (the riper the banana, the sweeter the ice cream!)
• 2-4 tablespoons unsweetened nondairy milk
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

👩‍🍳 Directions

1. Place the frozen banana slices, milk, and vanilla extract into a high speed blender or food processor and blend until very smooth and creamy.  You may need to stop and push down the sides every so often.  It should have the consistency of soft serve ice cream. 
2. You can also place the nice cream in the freezer for 1-2 hours if you prefer a firmer consistency. 
3. Leftovers will store in an airtight glass container in the freezer. Allow it to thaw for 20-30 minutes before serving.
