Chocolate-cherry no-sugar and no-dairy ice-dream... and yet absolutely delicious

Best to use a food processor, but a blender can be used.

Place in a food processor or blender

Two to three cups frozen pitted cherries

1/2 milk, I prefer almond milk

1/2 cup stevia in the raw

1/2 scoop vanilla protein, I prefer pea

1 tablespoon baking chocolate

Blend really well.

Serve promptly

Enjoy

If you have a Ninja food processor with double blades and a strong motor, you can double the recipe.
