Vegan Mint Nice Cream
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients:
- ¾ cup unsweetened almond milk 
- ½ cup unsweetened coconut cream 
- ¼ tsp. peppermint extract 
- 2 very ripe bananas, frozen, cut into chunks (about 2 cups) 
- Optional: 3 drops green vegan food coloring 
- Optional: ½ cup dark chocolate chunks, plus more for garnish 
Directions:
- Pour almond milk into ice cube trays; freeze until frozen, about 8 hours. 
- Transfer the frozen almond milk cubes to a food processor. Add coconut cream, peppermint extract, bananas and green food coloring (if using); process until smooth, about 2 minutes, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula as needed. 
- Optional: Add chocolate chunks to the food processor; pulse until the chocolate chunks are well distributed and slightly smaller in size, 10 to 15 pulses. 
- Transfer the mixture to an airtight freezer-safe container; freeze until firm, about 30 minutes. Top each serving with chocolate chunks and mint sprigs, if desired.
