Ingredients

Mint Chocolate Chip Nice Cream

4 frozen bananas, sliced
⅓ cup dark cocoa powder
3 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
10-12 drops peppermint extract
½ cup chocolate chips (divided)
6 Mint Oreos (divided)

Instructions

Add frozen sliced bananas, cocoa powder, almond milk, vanilla extract, and 10-12 drops of mint extract to the blender or food processor.
Process until the mixture is completely smooth and the texture of soft serve ice cream. This will take several minutes and you will need to periodically stop to scrape down the sides.
Test the flavor for mintiness. If you need to add more peppermint extract, add a couple more drops until it reaches your desired flavor.
Add ⅓ cup of the dark chocolate chips. Process for a few seconds.
Add 4 broken Oreos. Process for a few seconds.
Spoon the mint chocolate chip nice cream into a freezer-safe container. A loaf pan or a glass storage container both work well.
Break 2 Oreos into pieces and press them lightly into the nice cream. Add the remaining chocolate chips.
Press a layer of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the nice cream. Freeze for several hours or until it reaches scoopable consistency.
Once the mint chocolate chip nice cream is completely frozen it will be extremely firm. Remove it from the freezer about 20 minutes in advance to let it soften to a scoopable state.
You can keep mint chocolate nice cream covered in your freezer for months.
