Step-by-Step Instructions for Frozen Chocolate-Covered Bananas
  1. Peel the bananas and cut each in half. Insert a lollipop stick into the cut end of each piece and place on a parchment-lined cookie sheet. Freeze for 2 hours.
  2. Melt the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth and glossy.
  3. Dip each frozen banana half into the melted chocolate, leaving the bottom inch uncovered. Let excess chocolate drip off.
  4. Return the dipped bananas to the freezer for another 30 to 60 minutes, until the chocolate is hardened.
  5. Melt colored candy melts and drizzle over the hardened chocolate-covered bananas. Freeze again for 10–15 minutes to set.
  6. Optional: Add sprinkles immediately after dipping the bananas in chocolate before it sets.
  7. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to a week.
