How to Make Chunky Monkey Ice Cream
This banana chocolate chip ice cream is a breeze to make. Since it’s no churn, no fancy ice cream maker is necessary!
First, in a food processor, add the bananas and one-half cup of almond milk. Pulse until bananas start to break up.
Turn the processor on high; slowly add the remaining half-cup of almond milk until the mixture is smooth. If you still have chunks of bananas, add a little more almond milk.
Turn off the processor; add chocolate chips and walnuts. Pulse until combined.
Pour into bread pan and swirl fudge on top.
For soft nice cream, serve immediately or for a firmer nice cream, cover and freeze for 1-2 hours.
To make the fudge, you’ll whisk the ingredients together in a medium sauce pan and simmer over medium-low heat for five minutes, whisking occasionally.
In our household of ice cream experts, we rate it two thumbs up — and I’m sure you will, too!

This sounds so good. I love that you don’t use condensed milk and use bananas and almond milk for sweetness. Pinned and I’ll be including this in this week’s MM roundup.
