I love making easy snacks and meals with my toddler, and we've been experimenting with lots of "nice cream" combinations this summer! Frozen bananas are definitely a hot commodity in our household, especially during warm weather. It's also really fun to freeze our nice cream in popsicle molds for an easy, ready-to-grab, portioned dessert.

Ingredients
- 3 frozen bananas

Supplies
