Mint Chocolate Chip Nice Cream

Mint chocolate chip nice cream is such a great treat with the incredible taste of mint and chocolate chips. This recipe is a hit in my family! We make it all the time and ‘try’ to keep it stocked in the freezer all year round.
It’s super easy to make this healthy ice cream and is a more nutritious alternative to high calorie, sugar-packed classic ice cream.
What is Nice Cream anyway?
Nice cream is a sugar-free dessert made by blitzing pieces of frozen fruit in a food processor or high-speed blender. The whole-food ice cream is rich, creamy, and luscious enough for a special occasion (birthday party, anyone?) yet light and easy enough for an anytime indulgence.
It’s called ‘nice cream’ rather than ice cream, just to differentiate the two. Nice cream is a super easy, take on traditional ice cream, yet made very differently.
You don’t need one of those special ice cream churning machines, you simply use frozen bananas, a splash of milk and some flavourings – that’s it!
It sounds too good to be true doesn’t it? Ice-cream just out of bananas – yeah right! About this little concoction, I cannot hold back. It IS amazing. You will need to keep going back and trying it and saying – that can’t be right.
It tastes like ice-cream and it is so damn good! This is definitely one for the recipe bible. You will be in awe of the creamy, fruitful deliciousness before your spoon even begins to melt into the bowl.
You can satisfy an ice cream craving guilt-free with this “nice cream“! Seems so simple, that it feels like you are cheating a bit…but to be honest – it’s delectable stuff. And let’s face it, why make it complicated when something this simple can taste insanely delightful!
Once you start making nice creams, you will stop buying store bought ice creams, the creaminess it has is nothing less than any ice cream and the plus point is, it is absolutely healthy!
Full of nutrition and fruits, here is another way of eating more of the good stuff.
