Ingredients
10 popsicle sticks
5 ripe bananas, peeled and cut in half
1 (16 ounce) bag semisweet chocolate chips
1 tablespoon butter
8 tablespoons unsweetened toasted coconut flakes
4 tablespoons chopped almonds
wax paper
Directions
1. Insert one popsicle stick into the cut end of each banana. Place the bananas on a wax paper covered baking sheet and freeze until the bananas are frozen, about 2 hours.
2. Melt the chocolate and butter in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each melting, for 1 to 3 minutes.
3. Dip the frozen bananas in the melted chocolate and spoon the chocolate over the banana to cover it completely. Roll in coconut and almonds. Place the dipped bananas on the wax paper-covered baking sheet, and freeze until the chocolate is firm.
