Banana Split Bites


Ingredients:

Bananas
Chocolate (melted) -- or substitute with Nutella.
Candy sprinkles or chopped nuts
Ice cream
Whipped cream
Maraschino cherries

Directions:

Use firm bananas (put them in refrigerator of 20 minutes to help firm up) and cut into 1 inch sections. Leave the peel on for easy handling, and with a melon baller, dig a well in the middle of each banana section. Remove peel.

Melt chocolate in the microwave and dip the bottom portion of the banana in chocolate and then dip it once again in either candy sprinkles or chopped peanuts.

To quickly harden the chocolate, place dipped bananas in the freezer for five minutes.

Fill each well with ice cream and top with whip cream and a maraschino cherry.
