Everything tastes better on a stick, or so I’ve heard. Corn Dog, Ice Cream, Cake (Pops); all three taste better on a stick but what about a Banana Split on a Stick?
Skip the Ice Cream in a Banana Split and you’re left with fresh fruit, chocolate and peanuts. Put them on a stick and you have a Frozen Summertime Treat On A Stick. Sounds good to me!
Frozen Summertime Treat
Banana Split on a Stick
Supplies
- 12 Popsicle Sticks
- Parchment Paper
- Freezer safe tray or baking sheet
- Microwave safe bowl
- Shallow dish
Ingredients
- 1 – 2 Bananas
- 1 Lime
- 6 Strawberries (medium – large)
- 12 cubes Fresh Pineapple
- 1 1/2 cups Milk Chocolate Chips
- 1/4 Cup Chopped Peanuts
Directions
Begin by peeling and slicing bananas; to make 12 banana splits you will need 12 one inch slices. Cut the lime in half then squeeze fresh lime juice over the banana slices to prevent browning.
Next, cut the strawberries in half. Then core and cut the pineapple into one inch chunks (or a size similar to that of the bananas & strawberries). Again, you will need 12 pieces.
