12 ounces dark chocolate, melted over a double boiler
3 large bananas, cut into thirds
popsicle sticks
chopped salted pistachios
chopped spiced or smoked almonds
cocoa nibs
Melt chocolate over a double boiler (or in the microwave, if you prefer). Stir until smooth, glossy, and entirely melted.
Insert a popsicle stick into one end of each banana piece. Dip each banana into the warm melted chocolate. Shake off excess chocolate as best you can. Place dipped bananas on a parchment lined baking sheet. Sprinkle generously with chopped pistachios, chopped almonds, or cocoa nibs. Place in the freezer to harden and set.
When frozen through wrap individually or enjoy immediately.
Salted pistachios are shelled and coarsely chopped. Chili-rubbed almonds are (snacked on) and coarsely chopped. Cocoa nibs are appreciated for their dark and bitter crunch. We’re ready to sprinkle!
Melted chocolate is mandatory… otherwise we just have bananas on sticks, and what fun is that?
Dip and sprinkle. Dip and sprinkle.
