Vegan Snickers Ice Cream in a Mug
Ingredients:
- 1 ripe banana (frozen)
- 1 tablespoon almond butter (or any nut butter of choice)
- 1 teaspoon cocoa powder (unsweetened)
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup (optional for added sweetness)
- A few peanuts or any nut of choice (chopped)
- A small piece of dark chocolate (sugar-free, vegan-friendly)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Banana:
- If you haven’t already, peel and slice the banana, then freeze it for at least 2 hours or until solid.
- Blend the Ice Cream Base:
- In a blender or food processor, combine the frozen banana slices, almond butter, and cocoa powder. Blend until smooth and creamy. If the mixture is too thick, add a small splash of water or almond milk to help blend.
- Sweeten (Optional):
- Taste the mixture. If you want it sweeter, add the maple syrup and blend again.
- Assemble in a Mug:
- Pour the blended mixture into a microwave-safe mug. Sprinkle the chopped peanuts and pieces of dark chocolate on top.
- Final Touch:
- Microwave the mug for just 10-15 seconds to slightly melt the chocolate and soften the peanuts (optional).
- Serve:
- Enjoy your quick and easy Snickers-inspired vegan ice cream!
Feel free to customize the recipe with different nut butters or add-ins like coconut flakes or a pinch of sea salt. Enjoy this delicious treat that’s both vegan and sugarless!
