No Churn Banana Split Ice Cream – No ice cream maker is needed for this delicious recipe filled with bananas, pineapple, cherries, strawberries, and chocolate syrup!
Is it just me, or did last week fly by? It’s Saturday, and I don’t normally post on the weekends, but this week was one of those weeks where it was hard to accomplish anything. Plus I had a few blog maintenance issues going on that had to be taken care of on Friday…hence, no post.
But I was not going to hold out on you any longer because I couldn’t wait to share this No Churn Banana Split Ice Cream with you! And here’s a little confession: It was my first no churn ice cream to make! It was so easy! I have a great ice cream maker and all, but I couldn’t pass up an opportunity to try this method.
We ate it in waffle bowls, and the kids absolutely loved it…well almost all of them. I was 3 for 4. My oldest son doesn’t like cherries, so he skipped out on the deliciousness. That must have taken some will power to deny oneself the swirls of chocolate syrup and mini chocolate chips all because of a few cherries.
Now you do need a good bit of down time to make this recipe. The initial mixing goes pretty quickly, but you do need to allow some time for it to freeze. I left mine in the freezer overnight. So plan to make this the day before you want to have it.
So now I’m totally obsessed with no churn ice creams! My brain is just spinning thinking of new ones I want to make now! Enjoy!
