 *These photos are not mine, but the recipe is my version!

Ingredients:
  • Bananas ( as many as you like)
  • Chocolate*
  • Coconut flakes/shavings (optional)
*Chocolate options:
             ○ A. Chocolate ( to melt) -milk or dark
             ○ B. cocoa powder, with honey and water (honey is optional

Things you’ll need:
  • Pot
  • fork or spoon
  • knife
  • plate/tray
  • tin foil/baking sheet (optional) 

Steps:
Chocolate covering:
  1. Set/heat stove at about a 4-6, but once you melt the chocolate, you can change it to low-2 so it doesn't burn.  
  2. Put chocolate into pot and stir oil melted.  
  3. Pour a few spoonfuls of cocoa powder into the pot.  Then pour some water in and some honey.  The honey can add a richer flavor to the chocolate mixture.  Add more of each until the chocolate tastes good to you liking.  
  4. Viola!  You can the start of your chocolate covering!! 

Main recipe: 
  1. Set up your plate or tray.  I like to put tin foil on top to make clean up a whole lot easier!  
  2. Cut bananas into decent sized slices.  You can cut them to whatever size slices you want, but don’t make them too thin.  The thicker the better.  
  3. With a fork or spoon, pour the chocolate mixture over your banana slice, or dunk the banana slice into the mixture.  Which ever you find works best.  I kind of lay the slice into the mixture with a fork, then I pour the mixture on top of the slice with a spoon.  
  4. Lay the chocolate covered banana slice onto your plate/tray.  
  5. Now you can sprinkle the coconut flakes on top if you choose to do so.  They taste just as good without it, but it’s just a little something extra!  Make sure to put the coconut flakes on before the chocolate covering hardens.  
  6. Repeat steps 2-5 with the rest of your banana slices.  
  7. Put your plate/tray into the freezer.  I like to leave them in overnight to ensure they are completely frozen.  You probably only need to leave them in the freezer for about 3 hours or until they are frozen.  :)
  8. Once your chocolate covered bananas are frozen,  you can move them into a zip lot baggy or container until you are ready to eat them.  Make sure to keep them in the freezer so they stay frozen!  
  9. Yay!  Now you can eat and enjoy them!! 
Merry Christmas again!! Have a happy New Year too!!
