Chocolate Covered Bananas

Here's a super easy and super delicious snack that's a breeze to make!

Slice bananas and spread a little peanut butter in between, freeze for an hour, then dip in chocolate. Refrigerate for another 10-15 minutes and boom you have an awesome snack.

Stuffed Banana Bites With Chocolate Dipped Peanut Butter

The chocolate, peanut butter, and banana combo is perfect for an afternoon snack, or after dinner dessert alternative.

Ingredients:

 - bananas

 - creamy peanut butter

 - chocolate chips

 - chopped nuts or sprinkles (optional)

Directions:

Peel and slice off the ends of each banana. Cut the banana into about two 3″ long pieces. You should get about 2-3 banana bites per banana. Stand your banana bites up on their flat, cut side. Hollow out the center using a straw or apple corer. Leave about a half inch banana, unhallowed, at the bottom. Melt your chocolate  in a small, deep bowl. Dip the bottom half of your banana bites into the melted chocolate and roll in chopped nuts or sprinkles. Place on wax paper to dry. Refrigerate until chocolate has set and dry.

Remove the bananas from your refrigerator. Transfer the peanut butter to a pastry bag or a zip lock bag with the corner snipped off, and pipe it into your hollowed out bananas. Continue piping a swirl at the top for presentation if desired. You can also just spoon the peanut butter into the hole for a more simple alternative.
