It is all going too quickly and before we know it, half of this year would be gone! Gosh, before I blabber more here is an amazing ice cream that is a such a mood lifter that it is a keeper - Instant Chocolate Ice Cream recipe that requires just two ingredients.

    So what is this magical recipe that makes Instant Chocolate Ice Cream with just two ingredients? It is so so so simple - frozen ripe bananas and cocoa powder! Within few minutes, you can make a delicious softie serve ice cream that is so rich and decadent. I happened upon this trick quite by chance, looking at this quick recipe gif using frozen avocado. I had a light bulb moment, having some ripe bananas at home and viola, this instant chocolate ice cream was made.

    Making ice cream at home isnt at all that difficult and there are a number of no-churn, no ice cream maker ice cream recipes like Vanilla Chocochip Ice Cream, Mango Ice Cream, Strawberry Ice Cream but all of these require some preparation time and then, the difficult part being waiting for the ice cream to set. With this instant chocolate ice cream, throw in some chopped ripe bananas into the freezer and when you want, whip up this delicious ice cream - it is that simple! Check out the detailed step-wise recipe below.

      I am sorry but for freezing bananas, it needs to be sliced thin. Otherwise itโ€™s not well on blades of the blender or mixers.
      Just a friendly tip!
