Adorable Frozen Banana Ghost Pops for Halloween
These frozen banana ghost pops for Halloween treats are just what you are looking for - if you want to serve something with more of a healthy make up.
Equipment
- 8 Popsicle sticks
Ingredients
- 4 Bananas
- ½ cup Peanut butter
- 2 cups White chocolate baking wafers or almond bark
- 1 tbsp Vegetable oil Or coconut oil
- 16 Mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Cut each banana in half crosswise. Then cut again lengthwise so that you have 8 banana pairs (2 pieces for each ghost - like a banana sandwich).
- Spread peanut butter on one banana (the cut side). Then place another banana piece on top - to form a banana sandwich. Repeat until you have 8 banana sandwiches.
- Gently insert a popsicle stick into the bottom of each banana sandwich, ensuring the stick seems stable and secure.
- Place the bananas on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for about 1 hour or until firm.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate baking wafers (or 1/2 of an almond bark brick). Heat for 30 seconds and stir. Repeat. If you need to heat longer, continue to heat at 20-second intervals and stirring each time until the mixture is smooth. Stir in oil when chocolate is melted.
- Pour melted chocolate into tall glass.
- Remove firm bananas from freezer and dip each one into the tall glass, ensuring all areas of each banana pop is coated. Place coated bananas back on parchment paper.
- After all bananas have been dipped, add two chocolate chip eyes to each banana pop ghost.
- Let bananas set until chocolate has hardened. Serve immediately or place them back in the freezer until ready to serve. Keep cool while serving or the chocolate may become gooey.
