Peanut Butter Banana Sandwich!

Well I really promised this post last week.....but I failed and ran out of time! Soooooooo here is a special treat I discovered!

I originally saw a picture of this on Pinterest without a link, so I ran with it! Now I don't know about you, but I love peanut butter. I could probably eat an entire bag of Reese's....or an entire jar of peanut butter. So when I saw these healthier dessert alternatives, it seemed like a no brainer!

You start with a cookie sheet. I covered mine in foil for easy clean up! (I'm all about easier clean up!)

 Next you peel and slice your bananas. You can slice these in any thickness you desire; the thicker you make the slices, the thicker your final product would be.

Next you'll want to lay half of your slices on your prepared cookie sheet and prep your peanut butter. Now, there are a couple of ways you can do this. One way is to just use a spoon or measuring spoon and spoon a little bit of peanut butter onto each half on the cookie sheet. Another way is to take a ziplock bag and put some peanut butter in one corner of it, then cut a small piece of the corner off to make a pastry bag hack! See below. 

You can use any kind of Peanut Butter you'd like! I used Skippy natural, because I'm a Skippy lover to the core. 

 Here's a picture of me filling my sandwiches! (Thanks mom for taking this photo)

Once you have those filled, you can put the second half of the bananas on top to make sandwiches. 

Next, throw these in the freezer for about an hour. This allows them to set so they won't fall apart on the next stage. 

Once they've been thoroughly frozen, melt chocolate. You can melt any kind of chocolate in any way you'd like. Whether you prefer milk, dark, semi-sweet, or even white, these will taste good!

I'll admit I cheated and bought a melt and make microwaveable chocolate. But there is always the good ol' double broiler method to melting chocolate as well!

It's pretty simple from there, you simply dip each sandwich so that it is fully covered in chocolate. Once they've been dipped and put back on the tray, simply put them back in the freezer to allow the chocolate to set! Your covering doesn't even have to be pretty, mine wasn't!

See? Not very pretty, but still delicious!

My mom and I are currently obsessed with these treats! they disappeared rather fast in our house! I recommend storing them in a tupperware in the refrigerator after they have set. We originally kept them in the freezer and couldn't eat them until they thawed--and who wants to wait?!

I also had a "helper" in my kitchen. This is my furfew, Jäger  who I was watching while my sister was on her honeymoon! He sat next to me the entire time and begged, but hey isn't he cute?!
