frozen banana, dark choc & peanut butter bites
I’ve had massive chocolate cravings lately. I think I’m addicted. I happened to stumble across a great post by someone struggling with the same sort of thing. The post was an attempt to come up with a creative way to get a chocolate fix. This idea is simple, it works and my gosh, it is DELICIOUS.
I think they took me around 5 minutes to make. I adapted the recipe slightly and used dark chocolate. I might do the next batch with some almond or cashew butter and see how it goes.
They are perfect after an hour in the freezer – that’s pretty much all I’ve tested them at so far. I couldn’t wait overnight for them! I made around 16 pieces so I’ve got more for tomorrow. Hooray!
INGREDIENTS
2 large bananas
1/3 cup natural peanut butter (smooth)
1/3 cup chopped dark chocolate pieces
unsweetened coconut flakes (for garnishing)
METHOD
Set out a freezer safe dish with baking paper.
Cut bananas into medium sized pieces.
Head the chocolate and peanut butter together until melted.
Dip the banana pieces into the mixture, one by one, laying them out on the baking paper. Sprinkle the coconut flakes on top.
Pop in the freezer until they are ready and try to stop at one when they’re done – impossible!

These look really yummy! I wish Richard would eat bananas. Oh well, if I make these then more for me!
Maybe give it a go with something else. Imagine blueberries or mango dipped in dark choc! xx
these look delicious! i love things like this you can store in the freezer and eat one at a time.
i’ll have to try these very soon.
I found it impossible not to eat them all in one go! x
