Frozen Chocolate Dipped Bananas
Remember those good ol’ frozen chocolate bananas we had when we were kids, or the ones the vendors sell at the fairgrounds? Oh yes, the perfect blend of frozen banana flavor and just the right amount of chocolate. So creamy and refreshing, great for hot days!
4 medium bananas - with no green showing at all, but not brown and mushy.
2 bags of milk or dark Guittard chocolate (recommended for it’s shiny finish after freezing)
Dipping Decorations: edible decorations, candy crunch, granola, chopped nuts, crushed Oreos
Line a sheet pan with waxed paper. Before peeling, cut each banana in half across the middle. Insert a sucker stick into the cut end of each banana in its peel, pushing the stick half way in. Peel the banana. Place the bananas on the sheet pan and freeze for 1 hour. Melt the chocolate in 30 second intervals, being careful not to scorch the chocolate. Dip the frozen banana into the chocolate, rolling it around to cover completely. Sprinkle your decorations onto the chocolate covered banana very quickly before the chocolate cools. Return to the freezer. Once frozen, store the banana in an airtight container, because chocolate will absorb the odors in your freezer.
