2 banana
3 tbsp peanut butter
1.8 oz dark chocolate (70%)
1 tbsp cacao butter Optional. Makes the melted chocolate more liquid and easier to work with.

Cut the bananas in ½ to 1 cm slices. Top half the bananas with a teaspoon of peanut butter. Close with a second slice of banana, to make a mini banana sandwich. Place in the freezer for 30 minutes to harden.
Melt the dark chocolate and cacao butter together in a bowl. The ratio should be 3/4 chocolate to 1/4 cacao butter. This makes the melted chocolate a bit more liquid and easier to work with. You can either melt it in the microwave, 30 seconds at a time, or use a bain-marie method.
Dip the banana into the melted chocolate mixture, ensuring it's fully coated. You can use tongs or 2 forks to hold the bananas.
Place the coated banana on a tray and let it set in the fridge until the chocolate hardens. You can also keep them in the freezer, for a delicious frozen treat. Enjoy!
