Hello my lovelies! I hope you had a wonderful weekend filled with sunshine, laughter, good food and even better company! I sure did! I feel all recharged and fabulous after a great weekend with friends and because of all this frivolity and excitement (in addition to the MKR final last night, shhh) I am quickly loving then leaving you this morning.
‘Icecream’2 frozen bananas
2 tablespoons raw cacao
1/3 cup water (if you have a bung food processor…)
‘Choc Magic’
1 Tbspn coconut oil (melted)
1/2 – 1 Tbspn raw cacao
3-4 coarsely chopped walnuts
Easy as 1,2, 3 my darlings! Simple chop up the banana and put in food processor with the cacao and process awayyyyy baby! I added the water to help the mixing process (my processor goes on strike if ever dealing with mighty cold ingredients!) and it worked an absolute treat and didn’t dilute the flavour at all! In a separate small bowl, mix the coconut oil and cacao until combined. Feel free to add a natural sugar or sweetner like agave, honey or stevia here if you wish as it is quite a bold bitter flavour, but gee dammit I love it. Serve the ‘icecream’ in a glass, top with chocolate mixture and await for the magic as it sets within seconds of hitting the ‘icecream’! Garnish with walnuts and then go nuts (HA!)! Play around with your additions and flavours – I’m planning on a tropical icecream for summer (think mango, lemon and ‘nana) and maybe a vanilla bean icecream for these cooler months (simply add vanilla bean or pure extract and a natural sweetener and you’re ready to get your chow on!).
