Frozen Banana Bites

Cut the bananas in 1-2 inch chunks. Insert toothpicks for dipping.

In a microwave safe bowl add shortening and chocolate chips. Microwave on full power for 1-2 minutes until melted. Remove and stir well.

Dip the bananas in the chocolate and set on a waxed paper lined tray.

At this time, you may roll in chopped nuts, granola, sprinkles or flake coconut.

Set entire tray in freezer for 2 hours. Once they are hardened, remove from the tray and store in Ziploc bags and return to freezer.

***Note***
You may omit shortening and replace with creamy or chunky peanut butter.

This also works well with strawberries and cantaloupe.
