Milk Chocolate Covered Bananas

Created by: Howcan Team

Ingredients

  • 4 ripe bananas
  • 8 ounces of milk chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons of coconut oil
  • 1/4 cup of chopped nuts (optional)

Instructions

  • Peel the bananas and cut them in half crosswise. Insert a popsicle stick into each banana half and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Freeze for at least 1 hour.
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 8 ounces of milk chocolate chips and 2 tablespoons of coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
  • Remove the frozen bananas from the freezer. Working quickly, dip each banana half into the melted chocolate, using a spoon to help coat the banana evenly. If desired, sprinkle with chopped nuts while the chocolate is still wet.
  • Place the chocolate covered bananas back on the parchment-lined baking sheet and return to the freezer for at least 30 minutes, or until the chocolate is set.
  • Once the chocolate is set, the bananas are ready to be enjoyed. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer.

This delectable treat is believed to have originated in Europe, where chefs and confectioners experimented with combining ripe bananas and smooth milk chocolate. The dish gained popularity in the United States during the mid-20th century, becoming a favorite at state fairs and amusement parks. Today, this indulgent dessert can be found in specialty chocolate shops and artisanal dessert boutiques. The key to a perfect milk chocolate covered banana lies in using ripe, sweet bananas and high-quality milk chocolate. Some variations include adding toppings like chopped nuts or sprinkles for an extra burst of flavor. For the best version of this dish, seek out a renowned chocolatier or visit a local dessert shop known for their exceptional chocolate-covered treats.
