Why This Dessert Works
Many desserts rely heavily on refined sugar, butter, and flour. This one doesn’t. Instead, it uses natural sweetness and simple ingredients to create a creamy, indulgent texture without unnecessary calories.

Ingredients (Only 3!)
-
2 ripe bananas
-
1 cup plain Greek yogurt (or dairy-free yogurt)
-
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
That’s it. No sugar. No flour. No baking.
Instructions
1. Prepare the Bananas
Peel the bananas and slice them into chunks. Place them in the freezer for 1–2 hours, until firm. This creates a creamy, ice-cream-like texture.
2. Blend
Add frozen banana slices, Greek yogurt, and cocoa powder to a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides if needed.
3. Serve or Chill
Enjoy immediately as a soft, mousse-style dessert, or transfer to a container and freeze for 30–60 minutes for a firmer texture.
Tips for Best Results
