Chocolate Cup Banana Ice Cream

Start with ripe bananas: They should be sweet and soft.

Peel the bananas and cut them into coins: It doesn't matter what shape or size the pieces are in, as long as they are chopped up into evenly sized and somewhat small pieces.

Put the bananas in an airtight container: A freezer-safe glass bowl like this one is fine, or you can use a freezer bag.

Freeze the banana pieces for at least 2 hours

Blend the frozen banana pieces in a small food processor or powerful blender

banana pieces will look crumbled or smashed

If adding any mix-ins, like peanut butter or chocolate chips, this is the moment to do it

Transfer to an airtight container and freeze until solid

Then serv chilled in chocolate cup

sprinkle with chocolate chips
