A tasty and healthy treat for a children's party. You can eat it simply chilled or wait until it is completely frozen - in the form of ice cream.
Frozen chocolate covered bananas are a very tasty, bright and healthy dessert. These bananas are perfect for a children's party, although I think adults will also like this dessert. To decorate bananas in chocolate, in addition to confectionery sprinkles and shavings, you can additionally take chopped nuts, ground biscuit crumbs or ground waffles; in general, anything you find in your bins will do.
If desired, you can serve these chocolate-covered bananas simply chilled, but if you wait until they are completely frozen, then you will get very tasty ice cream!
Let's prepare all the necessary ingredients.
Ингредиенты
Bananas - 3 pcs. (large size)
Dark chocolate - 100 g
Butter - 30 g
Confectionery topping - 10 g
Coconut flakes - 10 g
Рецепт
1. So, peel the bananas and cut them into 2 parts. If you suddenly can’t find larger bananas, then take small ones and use them whole. Also, large bananas can be cut not into two parts, but into pucks; in this form, chocolate-covered bananas will be very convenient to eat even for very little sweet tooths.
2. Take long skewers for kebabs and cut them into two parts with scissors. Place the sliced bananas on skewers. By the way, if you have the opportunity to buy special wooden popsicle sticks, then be sure to buy them, since bananas sit much more comfortably on such wide sticks, but in the absence of them, ordinary wooden skewers will do.
3. Place the resulting “popsicles” from bananas on a freezing tray and place them in the freezer for about 5 minutes. We need them to cool slightly on top. There is no need to completely freeze them at this stage.
4. While the bananas are cooling, prepare the glaze. Break chocolate (I used 56% black, but you can use a mixture of dark and milk or just milk, depending on the sweetness of bananas and your taste) into small pieces and combine with butter.
5. Melt the chocolate in a steam bath or in the microwave until you get a smooth glaze. Whatever method you choose (bathhouse or microwave), the main thing is to never overheat the chocolate, otherwise it will curdle and turn into a lumpy mass. Therefore, stir the chocolate as often as possible and check its consistency.
6. Pour the resulting glaze into a tall narrow glass (for me it’s a glass for making yogurt). If there is no suitable container, then we simply skip this step.
7. Now we take out the cooled bananas and quickly dip them into the glaze one by one (we don’t keep the bananas in the glaze for a long time, since then the layer of chocolate will be very thick). If you haven’t found a suitable glass for the glaze, then simply apply the chocolate with a spoon or brush, or completely roll the bananas in melted chocolate.
8. Next, take the bananas out of the glaze and quickly (on cold bananas the chocolate sets quickly) sprinkle them with all kinds of sprinkles, or you can just roll them in them. In general, here you can safely use your imagination and decorate bananas the way you want. We put the bananas back on the tray and put them in the freezer so that the chocolate is completely set and the bananas themselves are frozen.
9. That's it! Our frozen chocolate covered bananas are ready. Bon appetit!
