Equipment

Ninja Creami
Ninja Creami Pint
Blender Bullet blender or regular blender
Spoon

Ingredients

Ice Cream Base

4-5 Bananas More or less depending on the size of the bananas- Ripe- cut into 1-2 inch chunks. I used small bananas- if using very large bananas, you may only need 2 or 3.
½ Cup Peanut Butter
¼ Cup Cocoa Powder Dark Cocoa Powder
¼ Cup Half and Half

Mix-Ins

¼ Cup Chocolate Chunks or Chips

Instructions

Combine bananas, peanut butter, cocoa powder, and half and half in a blender and blend until smooth.
Pour into a Ninja Creami Pint container.
Put the lid on the pint container and freeze on a level surface for 24 hours. After 24 hours, remove the pint from the freezer. Remove the lid.
After 24 hours, remove the pint from the freezer. Remove the lid.
Place the Ninja Creami pint into the outer bowl. Place the outer bowl with the pint in it, into the Ninja Creami machine and turn until the outer bowl locks into place. Push the ICE CREAM button. During the ice cream function, the ice cream will mix together and become very creamy.
Re-spin once.
Once the ice cream function has ended, turn the outer bowl and release it from the Ninja Creami machine.
Use a spoon to dig a hole down the center of the ice cream. Pour in the chocolate chunks and put the pint back into the Ninja Creami machine.
Choose the "Mix-Ins' function and process. Once it has finished processing, remove from the machine.
Your ice cream is ready to eat! Enjoy!

Notes

Why is there ice on the outside of my Ninja Creami ice cream?

To melt the ice so that it doesn't affect the texture of the ice cream, microwave the pint for 10 seconds, run the pint under warm water, or thaw the pint for 10 minutes before processing.

Do I need to freeze the Ninja Creami pint for 24 hours?

According to Ninja Kitchen, yes. It takes 24 hours for the mixture to evenly freeze throughout. Many have frozen for a shorter time and been successful. However, doing so may void the warranty.

How can I get a peanut butter ripple in my Ninja Creami?

You can't really. The peanut butter will mix in fully. When the ice cream is finished processing, mix in peanut butter with a spoon.

What do I do with Ninja Creami leftovers?

Smooth out the top of the ice cream and put it back in the freezer. Freeze until hard and then process again on the same initial process that you used.
