Description
Chunky Monkey is a Ben & Jerry's classic flavor, being a banana ice cream with chunks of walnuts and chocolate. Instead of the fat and added sugar bomb of traditional ice cream, this healthy nice cream uses a base of blended frozen bananas to make a delicious and lower calorie treat. For another Ben & Jerry's copycat nice cream, check out my Cherry Garcia Nice Cream!
