Frozen Banana Mummies
Ingredients
- 3 large firm but ripe bananas
- Lollipop sticks or kabob skewers
- 3 tablespoons coconut sugar
- 3 tablespoons food grade cocoa butter
- Allergen-free chocolate chips, raisins, or candy eyes
Instructions
- Peel and slice bananas into 2-inch pieces using a dull-edged table knife.
- Skewer bananas with lollipop sticks or kabob skewers (cut to 4-inch lengths using wire cutters, trim off sharp or pointed ends). Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze.
- For the candy coating, add the coconut sugar to the container of a high-powered blender or clean coffee grinder.
- Blend/grind on high until powdery.
- In a small saucepan, gently melt cocoa butter over low heat.
- Remove from heat and stir in powdered coconut sugar.
- Dab a drop of the candy coating onto a frozen banana and adhere an eye.
- Using a spoon, drizzle the candy coating over the banana in all directions, avoiding the eye.
- Repeat with remaining bananas.
- An egg carton turned upside down and pierced with holes makes an effective work stand!
Notes
Note: Coconut Sugar and food grade cocoa butter may be sourced online and at most natural food stores. Lollipop sticks and Wilton® Candy Eye Balls may be sourced online or wherever cake decorating supplies are sold.
