Ingredients

4 large ripe banana, peeled and cut into thirds crosswise
¾ cup semisweet or bittersweet chocolate chips, melted (see Tip)
¼ cup shredded coconut

Directions

1. Line a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper. Insert a popsicle stick into the cut end of each banana half. Cover each piece of banana with melted chocolate using a rubber spatula and sprinkle with coconut. (Reheat chocolate, as needed, to keep it melted.) Place the bananas on the baking sheet and freeze until frozen, about 2 hours.

Tip: To melt chocolate, microwave on Medium for 1 minute. Stir, then continue microwaving on Medium, stirring every 20 seconds, until melted. Or place chocolate in the top of a double boiler over hot, but not boiling, water. Stir until melted.

To Make Ahead: Store airtight in the freezer for up to 1 week.

Equipment: 12 wooden popsicle sticks
