I dreamt about making this cake, so I figured I better do it in what we like to call "reality" as well. It consists of banana vanilla ice cream, date caramel, and avocado chocolate pudding. I decorated it with bananas and a goji berry coulis for a color contrast, but that's optional. The crust is also optional, it's there to add another texture.

How to Prepare Banana Chocolate Caramel Ice Cream Cake [Vegan]

Crust
  1. Pulse the nuts in your food processor until they become crumbs, add the dates and process until combined and sticking together.
  2. Press into the bottom of a spring form pan and set aside.

Caramel

  1. Process the ingredients in your food processor until smooth, thick and creamy.
  2. Place in a bowl and set aside.
  3. Follow the same instructions for the chocolate pudding and goji berry coulis.

Ice Cream

  1. Blend the bananas and vanilla in your high speed blender until thick, smooth, creamy and white.
  2. It may take a minute but then it changes into ice cream really fast, so pay attention.

Assemble the Cake

  1. Spread the ice cream in the bottom of your spring form pan and then spread the caramel over that, mixing it into the ice cream a little with a spatula.
  2. Then carefully spread the chocolate pudding over this and put in the freezer overnight.
  3. When it's ready, let it thaw for 20-30 minutes then decorate with the coulis and serve with bananas and other fresh, organic fruit.
