Coffee Nice Cream with Homemade Magic Shell

What is nice cream?

Nice cream is a frozen "ice cream" made with a frozen banana base. All you need is frozen bananas, almond milk and a couple of flavor additions to make it.

I decided to make this nice cream coffee flavored. Why? Because I love coffee ice cream. To make this nice cream even more special, I created a homemade magic shell recipe to go on top of the nice cream. If you know me personally, you know I am OBSESSED with magic shell. I will not go to an ice cream shop that doesn't sell magic shell. I actually made homemade magic shell 4 plus years ago and I forgot how easy it was to make. It really topped off this nice cream in the best way possible!

4 step process how to make nice cream

Ingredients in Coffee Nice Cream

  • overripe frozen bananas (cut into coins) - the more ripe the bananas, the sweeter the nice cream
  • instant coffee powder
  • peanut butter powder
  • almond milk

How to make nice cream?

Combine all ingredients in a high speed blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy. Add almond milk by the tablespoon if your blender/food processor isn’t strong enough to process the frozen bananas. You can add a splash of maple syrup or honey for extra sweetness.

Enjoy right away as soft serve or store in the freezer for later. If you do freeze it, allow the nice cream to sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to soften before eating.

I used THIS food processor to make my nice cream recipe.

4 step process how to make homemade magic shell

How to make your own magic shell?

Melt 2 tbsp vegan dark chocolate chips with 1 tsp coconut oil. Pour over your nice cream and watch the magic happen. The chocolate will harden within seconds. I also added a sprinkle of sea salt on top!
