Today's best seller at the bakery: Banana Split Bites!
These are the result of receiving an order of bananas for banana bread and not receiving the flour along with it!
As a bakery, we obviously have a ton of flour. But, we usually order the amount that we need for a certain recipe, give or take a few bags, along with the other ingredients. And the excess flour we had laying around wasn't enough to make enough banana bread for a profit.
But, we needed something for the daily special!
What you need:
FIRM bananas
Chocolate- whatever kind you want to use; chocolate chips, bars, whatever!
Nonpareils sprinkles or chopped peanuts.
Ice cream- again, what ever flavor you want!
Whipped cream- I suggest canned, because it comes out prettier.
Cherries!
What to do:
Use firm bananas and cut into 1 inch sections. Leave the peel on
for easy handling, and with a melon baller, dig a well in the middle of
each banana section.
Melt chocolate in the microwave or stove or however you can, and dip
the bottom portion of the banana in chocolate and then dip it once again
in either non-pareils or chopped peanuts. To quickly harden the
chocolate, place dipped bananas in the freezer for five minutes.
Fill each well with ice cream (I filled mine with vanilla chocolate chip) and top with whip cream and a maraschino cherry.
These look heavenly. :) Thanks for the recipe! Have any special strawberry related dishes? I have a certain friend who loves strawberries!
