First I had to stop by Walmart to pick up the chocolate part of this yummy treat – the M&M’s! I love how there are so many varities of M&M’s to pick from. I just went with the regular milk chocolate ones this time, but you can switch it up and pick whichever kind of M&M’s you would like!Chocolate Pumpkin Ice Cream (Only 5 Ingredients!) #HeroesEatMMs #Shop | Optimistic Mommy

Here are all of the ingredients you will need to make this Chocolate Pumpkin Ice Cream:

  • ~1 Cup M&M’s
  • 4 Bananas
  • 1/3 Cup Maple Syrup
  • 1 1/2 Cups Pumpkin Puree
  • 1/3 Teaspoon Pumpkin Pie Spice

You’ll first start out by throwing all of the ingredients in a mixer. I chose to use my stand mixer, because it’s super easy. Plus Riley loves helping out and watching everything mix up.

Mix everything together, on a low speed, until everything is combined well. Make sure the bananas are smooth.

I added a small handful of extra M&M’s to the top of mine. You can never have too much chocolate, right?! 🙂 Enjoy this while watching Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier! That is what my husband and I did last night. We are huge superhero lovers, and we enjoyed this movie very much!
