I know what you’re thinking. Does this girl eat anything other than frozen banana concoctions?

I was actually telling a friend the other day how I have been eating banana based ice cream ALL the time!  ( which actually has helped me cut down on empty snacking)

Her response: ” Well, I bet you don’t have to worry about getting Charlie Horses in the middle of the night!”.  LOL  I had to laugh at myself just a little bit.

Before I go on.  I should list the other ” Frozen banana based” desserts I have blogged about Banana-Vanilla Milkshake Banana-Mango Soft Serve  Green Monster- Fro-Y0  Healthy Coffee Frappe  and now this.

I was going to wait a little bit before posting Another frozen banana dessert.  When I realized that summer is almost over. AND soon everyone will want Back to school recipes.

Cherry chocolate Chip Soft Serve ( Serves 2-4) 

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups of Frozen Bananas

3/4 cups of Frozen Cherries

1/4 cup of chocolate chips

2 teaspoons of unsweetened cocoa powder

1/2 cup of coconut milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Blend together in a blender until you get the consistency of soft serve.  cherry03 cherry05

This was SOOOO rich and delicious! It was so rich and flavorful, that A little bit went a LONG way!

 One thing to note.  The cover photo of this blog post states ” no added sugars”.  So I usually would use super dark chocolate chips.  I could not find any.  So the only added sugars in this are the sugars contained in the chocolate chips.  I feel that the chocolate chips can easily be omitted from this soft serve.

Als0, I used coconut milk.  I just happened to have it in the fridge.  I am a every type of milk kinda gal.  Cows milk, almond milk, coconut milk.  I drink it all.  This has coconut milk, but I do believe that ANY type of milk would be tasty

I am wondering if your frozen cherries are still frozen when you blend them or thawed. And no need to apologize for all the frozen banana recipes…we LOVE them!!!

Yes. my cherries were still frozen! You can use fresh, but I might add more banana to off set them. 🙂

This looks amazing! The color is really pretty, too. I know, weird to note that but it is! I’ll be making this and trying some banana-based “ice creams”!

That looks so good! I made something similar with berries instead of cherries and it was delicious.
