CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER, FROZEN BANANA DIPS

Ingredients

2 bananas
8 tbsp dark chocolate chips
1 tbsp coconut oil
2 tbsp natural peanut butter
6 Popsicle sticks

Preparation

1
Peel bananas and cut into pieces (2-3 pieces per banana, depending on size).
2
Place banana pieces onto a baking sheet with parchment paper, and into the freezer for 30 minutes.
3
To prepare chocolate coating, melt chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave safe dish.
4
Remove the banana pieces from the freezer and insert popsicle sticks.
5
Dip each banana into the melted chocolate. Or, if you’re like me and often have difficultly getting an even coat when using melted chocolate, use a silicone pastry brush and paint the banana pieces generously. Make sure to seal the bottom of the popsicle with the chocolate, so banana doesn’t slide off.
6
Place tray with the coated banana pieces back into the freezer for 10 minutes.
7
Meanwhile, measure the peanut butter and place into a microwave safe bowl or cup.
8
Microwave on high, until completely smooth and melted.
9
Remove tray from freezer and drizzle each piece with the melted peanut butter.
10
Place the tray back into the freezer, until peanut butter slightly hardens.

About

Everyone has a weakness. Mine? Peanut butter. Add chocolate to the mix and no further information is required. Unfortunately, most peanut butter and chocolate recipes mean high calorie and fat content. So, I wanted to create a warm day treat that is light, but completely satisfying for those peanut butter chocolate addicts out there.
