Frozen Bananas



Kids will go bananas for this frozen treat that's healthy to eat. INGREDIENTS:
3 bananas
6 ice-cream sticks
Two 1-1/2 oz. chocolate bars
1 tbsp. chopped nuts, crispy rice cereal, granola, or shredded coconut (optional)
1. Peel the bananas and remove any stringy fibers. Cut the bananas in half, widthwise, and push an ice-cream stick through the cut end of each half. Cover them in plastic wrap and freeze for about three hours.

2. Place the chocolate bars in a microwave-proof bowl and cook on high for about 2 minutes, or until the chocolate melts. Check after one minute. Stir in the nuts, cereal, or coconut.

3. Using a butter knife, spread the chocolate mixture over the frozen bananas to coat them completely. Rest the pops on a plate covered with waxed paper and freeze until ready to serve. Makes 6 pops.
