Here's how to make chocolate dipped, frozen banana bites decorated with rainbow sprinkles, a healthy dessert or snack made even better with Sprinkles! 

Ingredients

  • 1 banana
  • cup chocolate chips
  • Sprinkles

Instructions

  • Peel and slice the banana into 1/2-inch thick rounds. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet and freeze until very solid, 4-6 hours or overnight.
  • Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave in a ramekin. Spear the outside edge of a banana slice with a toothpick and dunk it in the melted chocolate. Let any excess drip back into the bowl before placing the banana slice back on the lined baking sheet. If the banana falls off of the toothpick and into the bowl of chocolate, retrieve it with a fork. Decorate with sprinkles and re-freeze for at least 15 minutes or until ready to serve.
