Instructions
For bananas:
Cut bananas in half width-wise to make six halves. Leave the peel on while you insert the wooden sticks into the bottom of each half, then remove the peel carefully.
Place the bananas on a plate or tray lined with wax paper, then freeze until solid, about 6-8 hours.
For Magic Shell:
Place coconut oil and chocolate spread in a microwave-safe bowl and heat for 30 seconds. Stir vigorously until the two are combined, microwaving in additional 10 second increments until a dipping consistency is reached.
For dipped bananas:
Dip frozen bananas into the slightly warm chocolate mixture, holding for about 10 seconds until dry. If you are dipping in candy, dip in candy immediately after dipping in chocolate before it dries.
If not serving bananas immediately, place in an airtight container lined with wax paper and keep frozen for up to 1 week. Undipped bananas can be stored in a freezer safe bag up to 6 months and dipped as needed.
