TART PIE CHERRY ICE CREAM WITH DARK CHOCOLATE CHIPS

This is a guilt-free version of ice cream, or nice cream if you will. There’s no dairy here. Sometimes I just want a lighter dessert and this was the ticket as we roll into February.

You can also chop up the chips for a smoother bite, but I prefer them whole!

I’m not a fan of sweet cherries, but I do love tart cherries. I was able to find frozen bagged tart pie cherries at the store, and I was thrilled. This dessert treat takes minimal ingredients and a food processor!

TART PIE CHERRY ICE CREAM WITH DARK CHOCOLATE CHIPS

1 tablespoon honey

1/2 cup dark chocolate chips

Instructions
