Dairy-Free Ice Cream Sandwiches!

• 5 whole Frozen Bananas
• 1 cup Pitted Dates

1. For the ice cream: Blend frozen bananas in a food process or strong blender.
2. Tip: Take bananas out of freezer and let them sit for about 15 minutes.
3. If the bananas are too frozen, it takes forever and its a bit hard on the food processor.

12. Pour the banana ice cream onto the cookie layer.
13. Remove the top cookie layer out of the freezer.
