Peel the bananas and slice them into 1-inch rounds. Place the banana slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for at least 2 hours or until solid.
In a food processor, puree the frozen banana slices until smooth and creamy. This may take a few minutes and you may need to scrape down the sides of the bowl occasionally.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pureed bananas with heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
Roughly chop the chocolate sandwich cookies into small pieces and gently fold them into the banana ice cream mixture.
Pour the ice cream mixture into a loaf pan or an airtight container, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Cover with plastic wrap or a lid and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until the ice cream is firm.
Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes to soften slightly. Scoop and enjoy!
