What's your flavor, tell me what's your flavor ooooh... mine's mint chocolate chip. Come eat some with me!
Now that we've got a little Craig David stuck in our heads let's get that nice cream ready for dessert (if you're too young to know the lines to this song you should look it up because it was HUGE back in the teenage years for my generation- it's super catchy and great for the background of making nice cream!) 😉
I am very fortunate to live in a vegan-mecca, Bali. We have veganized restaurants all over the place and they are incredible. World renown, IG-licious, people traveling from all over to visit, places.
So, I spend a lot of time in these places and my ideas are always stirring. They have cinnamon nice cream but no mint choco?
NO way. We HAVE to fix that!
What about people like my parents who say to me:
"We don't have a vegan option in our town!"
AHHH THE HORROR! I took it upon myself to make an easy recipe so there could be vegan mint chocolate nice cream abounding!
Here it is! =D
What you need:
- 1 cup coconut cream (I make my own from coconuts)
- 2 frozen banana
- 1/4 cup raw cacao powder
- 1 bunch fresh mint leaves
- 1/2 tbs maple syrup
What to do:
- Put all ingredients into a blender and blend together until smooth.
- Pour mixture into container (I use silicon baking trays because you can just push the treat out when it's ready!)
- You can garnish your bars with mint leaves if you would like some pretty flare!
- Freeze until hardened.
- Top with chocolate and enjoy!
Yes! Really that easy!
Just let those bad boys freeze and take form to their molds and once they set, you are ready to eat!
