Banana Chocolate Ice Cream – 4sp
Whilst Manchester might not get many sunny days, when we do, the temptation to indulge in a lovely cold iced treat is always strong. That’s why this ice cream is the perfect solution. You can make the ice cream itself 0pp but replacing the nutella with fruit such as raspberries and blackberries however just a little nutella and a few little extras make this little treat feel rather indulgent!
Ingredients
Serves 4 = 4sp (flex) (note – the ice cream on its own is 2sp per portion)
2 x banana, peeled and sliced into rounds
2 tbsp Nutella
4 x waffle cones (I got mine from Tesco, see pics below)(2sp each)
Optional – both options below will take the total of your cone to 6sp
4 x curls (I got mine from Tesco, see pics below, add extra points)
4 x tsp toffee sauce (I got mine from Tesco, see pics below, add extra points)
Method
Pop the sliced bananas on a plate, cover in foil and put in the freezer for at least an hour (or better overnight).
Once frozen, pop the bananas in a food processor and churn. Keep going and they will turn into the loveliest creamy ice cream. Add 2 tbsp of Nutella combine well and pop into a food carton. Put back into the freezer for half an hour to firm up.
Once firm scoop a nice ball of ice cream on to a cone, push in a curl and top with 1 tsp of toffee sauce per person if you are having!
Enjoy!
Hey! Did you use a particular blade in the food processor to churn the bananas? This recipe sounds lush
Hi Danj, I just used the standard blade in a Kenwood, the one I would use to blend soup ?
Many thanks might give it a go,!
Hi, just wondered if prepared and made up, could the end product be frozen ahead of time to store in freezer for week or two?
It could yes Kerry but when put back in the freezer the whole thing crystallises a little so it will need to thaw out before you serve x
Looks good, wanted to prep when had the time. Thanks for the prompt reply!
Hi,
I made this today with 3tsp of choc shot and sugar free hazelnut syrup, brings the points down to 2sp but tastes hazelnutty 🙂
Hi! If I didn’t use the cone do you know how many points it would be? Just the Nutella? Thanks! Ps tried some other recipes of yours this week – DELICIOUS!!!! Xx
Hi Kerry, yes you would just point the nutella so it would be 2sp per portion 🙂
Hi I’ve just made this but needed to use up 4 bananas so doubled the quantities. I used Jim Jams spread instead of Nutella but have no idea how many points it works out as?! Any idea?
