Ingredients
Frozen Banana Snickers Ingredients
- 1 banana
- 2 teaspoons date caramel sauce
- 2 teaspoons peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon chopped peanuts
- 2-3 tablespoons dark chocolate chips
- ¼ teaspoon coconut oil
Instructions
- Slice the Banana: Slice the banana in half lengthwise, then split each half down the middle to create four long sections. Arrange the banana slices on a parchment-lined baking sheet or dish for easy handling.
- Apply Date Caramel Sauce: Spread a thin layer of date caramel sauce on top of each banana slice to add natural sweetness and a chewy texture reminiscent of the classic Snickers bar.
- Spread Peanut Butter: Carefully spread a layer of peanut butter over the date caramel on each banana slice, enhancing the richness and flavor combination.
- Add Chopped Peanuts: Sprinkle the chopped peanuts evenly on top of the peanut butter layer, providing a satisfying crunch and nutty contrast.
- Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Heat in 15-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
- Drizzle Chocolate: Drizzle the melted chocolate generously over the prepared banana slices, coating them for a decadent finish.
- Freeze to Harden: Place the chocolate-coated banana slices into the freezer for 1-2 hours or overnight, allowing the chocolate to harden and the dessert to chill for a refreshing treat.
- Serve and Enjoy: Once frozen, enjoy your homemade frozen Banana Snickers as a cool, satisfying snack or dessert.
Notes
- Use ripe but firm bananas for best texture.
- Date caramel sauce can be substituted with caramel sauce or homemade date paste.
- Dark chocolate with at least 70% cocoa results in a richer flavor.
- Store leftover treats in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one week.
- For extra flavor, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top after drizzling chocolate.
