Impress your friends with this banana choc-nut "nice" cream that delivers creaminess and crunch all in one delicious bite!

  • Banana, 4 small, peeled, frozen
  • Non-fat plain Greek yogurt, 1⅓ cup(s)
  • Chocolate hazelnut spread, 4 tbsp(s)
  • Hazelnuts, ¼ cup(s), chopped, roasted
  • Cocoa powder, 1 tsp(s), to serve

Method

Roughly chop the bananas and place into a food processor with the yogurt. Blend until smooth. Add the choc nut spread and blend until smooth.

Spoon into a freezer-safe container. Cover with a lid and freeze for 3 hours for "nice" cream.

Spoon into bowls, top with hazelnuts, sprinkle with cocoa and serve.

TIP: Spoon the "nice" cream into a freezer-safe container just large enough to contain it. Press a piece of baking paper onto the surface (this prevents ice crystals forming during freezing). Cover and freeze for up to 1 month. It will become firm if frozen longer than 3 hours, so you may need to stand the container at room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes and use a warmed ice cream scoop to serve.
