Ingredients
- 4 ripe bananas
- 200 grams dark chocolate
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup crushed nuts (e.g., peanuts, almonds, or walnuts)
- 0.25 cup rainbow sprinkles
- 0.25 cup shredded coconut
- 4 toothpicks or popsicle sticks
- 1 sheet parchment paper
Directions
Step 1
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
Step 2
Peel the bananas and cut them in half crosswise. Insert a toothpick or popsicle stick into the flat end of each banana piece. Place them on the prepared sheet and refrigerate for 10 minutes.
Step 3
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate and unsalted butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until fully melted and smooth.
Step 4
Set up three shallow bowls: one with crushed nuts, one with sprinkles, and one with shredded coconut.
Step 5
Remove the bananas from the refrigerator. Dip each banana piece into the melted chocolate, using a spoon to ensure it is fully coated. Let excess chocolate drip off.
Step 6
Roll the chocolate-coated bananas in the toppings of your choice (crushed nuts, sprinkles, or shredded coconut). For variation, you can use a combination of toppings on one banana.
Step 7
Place the finished bananas back onto the lined baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes or until the chocolate is fully set.
Step 8
Serve chilled and enjoy your Banana Bonkers!
