Ingredients

• 4 ripe bananas
• 3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 3 tablespoons oil
• Chopped nuts, coconut, or other toppings (optional)

Instructions

1. Place chocolate chips and oil in a double boiler and heat over simmering water until chocolate is melted. (Or microwave on 50% power, stirring every few minutes
2. Peel the bananas and cut into 1 to 1 1/2 inch thick slices. Slide slices onto wooden skewers.
3. Place melted chocolate in a low, shallow bowl and dip skewered bananas into the chocolate, using a spoon to help drizzle chocolate over the top half of each banana piece. Sprinkle with toppings, if using.)
4. Lay skewers over a 8x8 or 9x9 baking dish and place in the freezer. Freeze 1 1/2 hours, or until bananas are firm and chocolate is set. (Frozen bananas can be kept in the freezer up to 1 week, though depending on the temperature of your freezer they might need to sit on the counter for a few minutes before serving because the bananas can be too frozen to bite easily straight from the freezer.)
