Process the ice cream in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions. Fold in the roasted bananas and keep chilled.
To make the ginger molasses cookies, combine the dry ingredients. Cream together butter and sugar. Add dry ingredients, then wet. Finish by adding spices. Be careful not to over mix.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Form in 1-inch balls and placed on greased cookie sheet 2 inches apart. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes.
