2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

3. Scrape down the sides and puree again. Repeat the process until the mixture is smooth.**
4. Serve.
* Hubby’s Tip - Bananas can take a day up to 4 hours to freeze well, so take three or four bananas,
slice them about 1/2″ thick, freeze them in a Ziploc bag (make sure to lay the slices out flat in the bag when you freeze so they don¹t stick together) and leave them in the freezer so you can always make this treat on a moment’s notice.
** Use the lowest setting to puree to avoid the ice cream from getting too loose and so it has more of a true ice cream texture.
*** Hubby likes using strawberries but you can use whatever frozen fruit you like in addition to the bananas.
