BANANA TREATS

To make these yummy frozen banana treats, slice bananas in half, and skewer on a stick. 
{I used corn skewers}

Then, dip in melted chocolate.
An easy and delicious recipe for dipping is:

1 cup Semisweet Chocolate Chips
1/4 cup butter, cubed
3 Tablespoons Evaporated Milk

Combine and heat till mixture is smooth.

Next, sprinkle {or roll} your chocolate-coated banana with sprinkles, crushed oreos or candy bars or whatever else sounds good.  You could also get extra creative and coat the banana in peanut butter before dipping it in chocolate, etc.

After your bananas are assembled to your liking, place in the freezer.  In the name of science, we tested several of these snacks during various stages of freezing, and concluded that the bananas were nice and cold  after about 30 minutes but weren't frozen solid for several hours...and that even after a few days in the freezer, the frozen banana snacks maintained their deliciousness.
