CHOCOLATE COVERED BANANA POPS

Ingredients:
4 bananas
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup chopped peanuts


Directions:
Peel the bananas and cut in half across to get 2 short pieces of banana. Insert a Popsicle stick into each banana half for a handle. Wrap each banana half in a piece of aluminum foil and place in the freezer for at least 4 to 6 hours until frozen solid. Place the cream in a small
saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.

Remove from the heat. Place the chocolate chips in a medium bowl, then carefully pour the hot cream over the chips. Let the chocolate and cream sit for a minute or two, then stir with a small spoon until blended and chocolate is completely melted. Remove the bananas from the freezer
and unwrap. Cover a small baking sheet with wax paper or aluminum foil. Holding the stick, dip one banana half in the melted chocolate until completely coated. Sprinkle the
coated banana with about 1 tablespoon of the nuts and set the banana on the covered baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining bananas. Serve immediately, or place in the freezer until ready to serve.
