• Add desired amount of gel food coloring if using white chocolate

• Sprinkle topping on immediately, allowing it to dry into the chocolate

Endless Toppings

There are so many delicious toppings that pair well with chocolate bananas. Rainbow sprinkles are a favorite in our house, but when I’m making these little treats for birthday party snacks, I like to decorate with plenty of topping options. Sprinkle a few of these on your chocolate bananas:

• Shredded coconut
• Chopped nuts
• Chopped cranberries or favorite dried fruit
• Fruity Pebbles
• Crushed Oreos
• Mini peanut butter chips

Have fun and expect a little bit of a mess making these with the kiddos. They are so easy to make and always a big hit! Let us know what toppings you try out.
