Instructions

In a small bowl, mix the almond flour, cashew butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and vegan mini chocolate chips until a soft cookie dough forms.
Roll the dough into small bite-sized balls and place them in the freezer while preparing the nice cream.
Add the frozen bananas, non-dairy milk, cashew butter, and vanilla extract to a high-speed blender or food processor.
Blend until smooth and creamy, adding a little extra non-dairy milk if needed to achieve a soft-serve consistency.
Scoop the nice cream into serving bowls.
Top each serving with the frozen cookie dough balls and additional vegan mini chocolate chips if desired.
Serve immediately for the creamiest texture.

Notes

Substitute cashew butter with almond butter, peanut butter, or sunflower seed butter if desired.

Add 1 tablespoon cocoa powder for a chocolate variation.

Mix in chopped walnuts or pecans for extra crunch.

Add a pinch of cinnamon or a few drops of peppermint extract for different flavor variations.

Store leftovers in an airtight freezer-safe container for up to 1 week.

Let frozen leftovers sit at room temperature for 10 to 15 minutes before serving for easier scooping.
