Chocolate Banana Bundles
TOTAL TIME: Prep/Total Time: 30 min.
YIELD: 4 servings.
Banana with chocolate is such an irresistible combo that I make this quick dessert often. You can also top these tasty bundles with the butter and brown sugar mixture left over from coating the bananas, or sprinkle on a dash of sea salt. —Thomas Faglon, Somerset, New Jersey
