    Who doesn’t love a delicious scoop of ice cream—or should we say, “nice cream”? Instead of dairy milk, the base of this decadent dessert is frozen bananas. Almond butter  is included to pump up the creaminess and protein. Top with sliced almonds for extra protein and a crunch! And unlike regular ice cream, this one has no added sugars—it’s sweetened with zero calorie Splenda Granulated Sweetener!

    Step-By-Step Instructions:

    1. In a food processor, pulse bananas, half of the cocoa powder, Splenda Sweetener, and salt until pea-sized chunks form. Add vanilla extract and the rest of the cocoa powder. Continue to pulse. Mixture will gather and form a frozen soft-serve ice-cream consistency. Drizzle in almond butter and pulse twice more.

    2. Scoop into bowls and serve topped with almonds or stir in almonds. Place in a freezer-safe container and enjoy within 3 days.

    3. Note: Toast almonds for a deeper, delicious flavor. Keep sliced bananas in a zip top bag in the freezer to have them ready on hand for making nice cream any time.

    Step-By-Step Instructions:

    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees °F and prepare a 9×11 baking pan by lining it with a sheet of parchment paper, leaving a few inches of overhang on the sides to allow for easy removal. Lightly spray the corners with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.

    3. Transfer the mixture into the baking pan, using a spatula to spread it out evenly and slightly pack it down. Sprinkle the top with a little more coconut if desired.

    4. Bake for 20 – 22 minutes, until the edges begin to turn golden brown. Remove the bars from the oven and let them cool in the pan completely before cutting. Carefully pick them up with the parchment paper, then slice them into 18 bars. Store them in an airtight container. Enjoy!

    Step-By-Step Instructions:

    1. Preheat oven to 225°F, and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

    2. Slice apples ⅛” thin, using a knife, a v-slicer, or the slicing attachment of a food processor. Then arrange slices on prepared baking sheets and sprinkle evenly with 2 tbsp Splenda Sweetener and 1 tsp ground cinnamon. Bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes. Flip the chips onto the other side and bake for 20 minutes more.

    3. Turn oven off and leave apple chips inside for another hour, with the door closed. Chips should be mostly dry to the touch but will continue to dry out as they cool.

    4. While chips cool, make peanut butter yogurt dip by combining Greek yogurt, peanut butter, remaining 1 tbsp Splenda Sweetener, and remaining 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon in a small bowl. Whisk until combined.
