This smooth and creamy Cherry Yonanas is made with just two ingredients–frozen cherries and bananas. Topped with a simple homemade chocolate magic shell you’ll love this guilt free treat!
Brett and I usually celebrate Valentine’s Day making a nice, home-cooked meal together {after the kids are in bed} and enjoying a little dessert while watching a movie. We usually fall asleep by ten o’clock watching a cheesy chick flick picked by me. Does that make us boring? Or old? Or both? We just don’t love fighting the crowds at restaurants. Oh my gosh… we are old!!
That’s it! We’re going out this Valentine’s Day. But we’ll still be making this Cherry Yonanas for dessert. Because, it’s totally guilt free. Well, until you top it with chocolate magic shell. But that’s kind of what makes it sooo amazing.
All you need to make this is some frozen cherries, frozen bananas, and a kick booty blender 🙂 I used our Blendtec {with the Twister Jar}, hit the ice cream button and let it do its magic.
Perfection you guys…
It makes the most perfect thick and creamy cherry banana “soft serve” like ice cream. It’ll melt quickly so either eat it right away or pop it in the freezer.
Chocolate Magic Shell is what really makes this dessert perfect. It kind of makes it taste like a chocolate cherry dipped cone. You know, like from DQ? Except the ice cream is cherry and the dip is chocolate. Same flavors though–chocolate and cherry– which are great together.
And ps….homemade magic shell is so easy to make. So don’t you fret!
- 2 ripe, frozen bananas (quartered)
- 1 cup frozen cherries (pitted)
- 1/4 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 tsp coconut oil
- Place frozen bananas and frozen cherries in the twister jar of blendtec blender. Press the "ice cream" button and let blend until smooth and creamy. (hold lid down securely while blending)
- Melt chocolate chips and coconut oil together in the microwave. Drizzle over ice cream.
Um, hello! This looks amazing! And so easy, too! As an ice cream connoisseur, I definitely have to give this a try!
Thanks Melissa!!
