Description

These Balboa Island-style chocolate covered frozen bananas are healthy, fun, and incredibly easy to make. And the 2-ingredient magic shell chocolate dip is a game-changer.

Ingredients

  • 1 bunch Ripe Bananas (brown Spots Are A Good Thing!)
  • 1 cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
  • 1 cup Milk Chocolate Chips
  • ¼ cups Refined Coconut Oil
  • OPTIONAL TOPPINGS:
  • Crushed Up Chocolate Sandwich Cookies
  • Shredded Coconut
  • Chopped Up Peanut Butter Cups
  • Chopped Walnuts

Preparation

Peel bananas carefully since they are ripe. Cut off approximately 1 to 1 1/2 inches from one end of the banana. Stick a cake-pop or popsicle stick about ⅓ of the way through the cut end of the banana.

Freeze bananas for at least 3 hours (preferably overnight), left uncovered to prevent ice crystal formation.

When ready to start dipping, place each topping in a separate plate.

Add chocolate chips and coconut oil to a tall glass that is microwave safe. The glass makes for easy dipping of the banana.

Melt the chocolate and oil mixture in the microwave for about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes, stopping halfway to mix. Now you need to work quickly because the chocolate will harden almost instantly: Take bananas out of freezer, dip in chocolate (use a spoon to cover the entire banana if your glass isn’t tall enough), then quickly roll into toppings (using your hands or a spoon to help you apply the toppings).

That’s it! Enjoy right away!
