Frozen Chocolate Banana Bites!

This was a recipe I found on a blog called Never Homemaker! I tried it and loved it! So easy to make and eat! I used milk chocolate chips instead of vegan chips!  Sorry, but I don't even know what vegan chips are! This is what my banana bites looked like.

INGREDIENTS;

2 large bananas
1/4 to 1/3 cup vegan chocolate chips - I used milk choc. chips
1/4 to 1/3 cup natural peanut butter
Unsweetened coconut flakes - I used sweetened

DIRECTIONS;
Cover a large plate with waxed paper or parchment paper.
Peel and cut up the bananas into good-sized chunks. Each banana should give you around 5 to 6 pieces.
Heat the peanut butter and chocolate chips in the microwave on high for about a minute. Then stir until smooth.
Dip the banana pieces in the chocolate-peanut butter mixture. Coat them well.
 Then place them on the plate leaving some space between each piece.
Sprinkle the coconut flakes on top. Place in the freezer for about an hour or until hardened.
They can even be frozen overnight, but I couldn't wait that long!
These were all eaten very quickly, but if you have leftovers store them in a sealed container in the freezer.
This serves about 4 people.

    I bet I could use white chips combined with the peanut butter! I am allergic to chocolate! I would also like these with a touch of gourmet salt on top or maybe nuts! I love this and I am gonna make them!! I have all the ingredients too!!

  4. I'm going to my granddaughter's Sweet 16 Birthday party next weekend and I offered to bring a desert. Being a working grandma I don't have much time for baking so this will be perfect. I'll make a few batches to make sure I have enough. Sounds so yummy and easy to make. I'm sure all the teenage friends there will love them.

  5. These look simply YUMALICIOUS! Reminds me of the Wisconsin State Fair Frozen Banana dipped in chocolate on a stick I used to get as a kid(and adult)! I can't wait to try this using your recipe and just plain chocolate! Thanks! I wonder what crumbled vanilla wafers/and or crushed graham crackers sprinkled at end?
