Notes
Use overripe bananas with brown spots for maximum sweetness and flavor. Soften the cream cheese at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before mixing to avoid lumps. Don't skip the lemon juice - it keeps the banana from browning and brightens the overall flavor. Chill for at least 2 hours; overnight gives the best texture. For a dairy-free version, use dairy-free cream cheese, coconut yogurt, and vegan protein powder. These cups can be frozen for up to 2 months - thaw overnight in the fridge before serving.
