CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER BANANA ICE CREAM

~ Food Your Way

4 ripe bananas, cut into 1-2" pieces
2 T. peanut butter
1 T. chocolate chips

Freeze bananas until stiff. 

In a small pan, melt the peanut butter and chocolate chips together, stir frequently.  Remove from heat and cool slightly.

Place frozen banana pieces and peanut butter mixture into a food processor; blend until smooth.  Serve immediately.

Notes: We have eaten this immediately and also frozen some to eat later.  Both ways work well, but the frozen version is firmer ... much firmer.  Once it's frozen solid, you'll need to let it sit out a bit before you can dish it up.  If you want to plan ahead, then freeze several bananas, portioned out in whatever amounts you need to make ice cream for your family, so that they are ready to use whenever the mood for ice cream strikes.
